Excavations at Oura 1928

The sanctuary of Oura (also refered to as Ouranía) is situated on the eastern coast of Cyprus in the Karpassos peninsular. The SCE excavated it in April 1928 but it was not published in the SCE publications. This was due to the fact that they found a large number of fragments of limestone sculpture which were all very badly damaged and disintegrated, and so as the volume of the scientific publication had to be limited they omitted it.
