The aim of the project is to define the geographical scope of trade in sought-after goods and the spread of cultural and technological trends during the Bronze Age in Europe and neighboring cultures through new excavations at a major trading center in Cyprus. The Torsten Söderberg Foundation has been a key funder of the current excavations at the 50-hectare Bronze Age city of Hala Sultan Tekke in Cyprus, which is reserved for Swedish research through an agreement with local authorities. The city is one of the largest from the Bronze Age and existed from 1650 to 1150 BCE. The findings confirm cultural and material interactions across an increasingly larger geographical area. Central to the project are studies of locally produced and sought-after goods, their distribution, and the nature and origin of imports. Through previous excavations, we have identified three sectors suitable for the project’s objectives. In these, limited excavations can yield cost-effective results: 1. a neighborhood featuring, among other things, textile and copper industries whose products formed the basis of the city’s trade; 2. an administrative district with large warehouses near the Mediterranean port; and 3. a necropolis with graves containing imported luxury goods from a cultural sphere that has been continuously expanded through new discoveries. The project director’s experience from excavations in Cyprus, Greece, Jordan, and Palestine, as well as the participating researchers’ cutting-edge expertise in natural sciences and technical fields, are crucial to the project’s success.
