Cipro and Italy. Shared cultural identities at the dawn of history

Castel Sant'Angelo will host until June 30, 2026, a major archaeological exhibition exploring the cultural links between Cyprus and Italy at the origins of Mediterranean history. Approximately 120 artifacts document the maritime routes, commercial exchanges, and technological transfers between the two regions. The exhibition presents terracotta figurines, jewelry, ceramics, and ritual objects testifying to cultural interactions dating back to the Bronze Age. Visitors discover how these exchanges shaped Mediterranean cultural identities and influenced the development of civilizations. This exhibition offers a unique perspective on ancient connectivity in the Mediterranean and the shared roots of our cultures.
