Cypro-Geometric I
Also known as: CG I
Early Cypro-Geometric phase with regionally uneven settlement and mortuary evidence and the possible Opheltas Greek inscription.
Review and provenance
Specialist reviewer: not recorded. Review date: not recorded.
Dataset workflow: proposed. This is separate from specialist review.
Confidence describes the stated assessment; it does not certify expert approval. How review works.
Chronology
Dating intervals may describe uncertainty or phases; their width alone does not establish event duration.

Research description
Early Cypro-Geometric phase with regionally uneven settlement and mortuary evidence and the possible Opheltas Greek inscription. Alternative ceramic and absolute chronologies are represented as separate date assertions rather than collapsed into one fixed range.
