Pair of crescent-shaped earrings from Cyprus with tapering ends forming a loop and a hook.
Cypriot jewellery of the Late Bronze Age (1650-1050 BC) reveals a mixture of Minoan, Mycenaean, Syrian, and Egyptian traits, as a result of the island' s geographical position in the crossroads of Eastern Mediterranean trade-routes.
