Cyprus - HISTORY (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03) |
 | | The Late Bronze Age on Cyprus was characterized by a fusion of the indigenous culture and the cultures brought by settlers from the mainland areas. |
 | | The Church of Cyprus was confirmed as being auto cephalous, that is, ecclesiastically autonomous, enjoying the privilege of electing and consecrating its own bishops and archbishops and ranking equally with the churches of Antioch, Jerusalem, Alexandria, and Constantinople. |
 | | Cyprus would not be united with Greece, as most of the population had hoped, but neither would it be partitioned, which many had feared. |
