Abstract The cult centre of Palaepaphos was in continuous use since the construction of its megalithic temenos in the Late Bronze Age, but the new political role which the sanctuary was made to perform in the Hellenistic and Roman periods has supressed its original identity. From the 3rd c. BC, when the citystates of the island were abolished by Ptolemy Soter, to the end of the 4th c. AD, when pilgrim visitations and state-endorsed festivals were gradually abandoned under the growing impact of Christianity, the abode of the Cypriot goddess served the colonial politics of the Ptolemaic kingdom and the Roman Empire, respectively. The Palaepaphos Urban Landscape Project (PULP) has shown that the recovery of the sanctuary’s millennium-long primary role depends on the recovery of the almost invisible landscape of its founding polity and the region’s associated settlement structure. With the use of geospatial analyses and advanced documentation and imaging technologies, PULP has been building a diachronic model of the urban structure of the ancient polity and a site distribution model of the Paphos hydrological basin. Current results have unlocked the significance of the sanctuary’s spatial location in relation to a long-lost gateway to the sea that was the foundation kernel of Ancient Paphos.

Palaepaphos：释放塞浦路斯女神圣所的景观环境

摘要自古铜时代晚期巨石巨石建造以来，帕拉耶帕斯的邪教中心一直在使用，但圣殿在古希腊和罗马时期所扮演的新政治角色已使其原本的身份受到限制。从3 c。公元前4世纪末，托勒密·索特（Ptolemy Soter）废除了该岛的城邦。公元后，随着基督教的影响越来越大，朝圣者的探访和国家认可的节日逐渐被放弃，塞浦路斯女神的住所分别服务于托勒密王国和罗马帝国的殖民地政治。Palaepaphos城市景观项目（PULP）表明，庇护所恢复了长达千年的主要作用，取决于其创始政体几乎看不见的景观和该地区相关的定居结构的恢复。通过使用地理空间分析以及先进的文档和影像技术，PULP一直在建立古代政体城市结构的历时模型和帕福斯水文盆地的场地分布模型。目前的结果已经揭示了该避难所的空间位置的重要性，而这与古老的帕福斯的基础内核-一个长期消失的通往大海的门户有关。PULP一直在建立古代政体城市结构的历时模型和帕福斯水文盆地的场地分布模型。目前的结果已经揭示了该避难所的空间位置的重要性，而这与古老的帕福斯的基础内核-一个长期消失的通往大海的门户有关。PULP一直在建立古代政体城市结构的历时模型和帕福斯水文盆地的场地分布模型。目前的结果已经揭示了该避难所的空间位置的重要性，而这与古老的帕福斯的基础内核-一个长期消失的通往大海的门户有关。
