Abstract
En 中文
This article focuses on the analysis of settlement building and abandonment activities and their impact on the formation of community ideologies and ideas. Specifically, the evidence of social practices will be discussed for Prehistoric Cyprus, taking the example of the Middle Bronze Age community at Erimi in South coastal Cyprus. Through the discussion of specific evidence recovered from the workshop complex and domestic areas at this site, we aim to explore the possible connection of construction and abandonment activities with ritualized practices performed by the community to ensure and sustain long-term social cohesion and construct social memory and communal identity.
