The wrecks, marked by a primary cargo of basket-handle amphoras, indicate exchange between Cyprus and the cities of coastal Asia Minor and Corinth. Such Iron Age internationalism may have been driven by an interest in processed agricultural goods such as olive oil. | | Page: | | 60-68 | | URL: | | http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1095-9270.2010.00265.x/abstract |
