Pestarino, Beatrice, author. Kypriōn Politeia, the Political and Administrative Systems of the Classical Cypriot City-Kingdoms / Beatrice Pestarino. 1st ed. Leiden ; Boston : Brill, 2022. 1 online resource (315 pages) text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Mnemosyne, Supplements ; 459 Description based on print version record. Through new readings and interpretation of Cypriot inscriptions – written in Cypriot-syllabic Greek, Eteocypriot, Phoenician, and alphabetic Greek – Kypriōn Politeia, the Political and Administrative Systems of the Classical Cypriot City-Kingdoms is the first book which reconstructs in detail the political and administrative systems of the Classical city-kingdoms of Cyprus. The book investigates the bodies of government beyond the Cypriot kings and the roles played by magistrates and officials in local governments, it analyses accounts of the headquarters of the main administrative and economic activities – such as palace archives, and tax collection hubs –, and demonstrates that these systems were similar in all the city-kingdoms. What kind of society would you face if you travelled to Cyprus in the 5th-4th cent. BC? This is the first book which analyses in detail the politico-administrative system of Classical Cyprus through the study of inscriptions written in different languages.
