Also known as: CG II
Cypro-Geometric phase preceding clearer ninth-century Phoenician epigraphic and settlement evidence at Kition.
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.

Precision: approximate
Chronology model: Meyer–Knapp / Knapp comparative phase model

Research description
Cypro-Geometric phase preceding clearer ninth-century Phoenician epigraphic and settlement evidence at Kition. Alternative ceramic and absolute chronologies are represented as separate date assertions rather than collapsed into one fixed range.
