A section of a prehistoric cemetery was uncovered during the 2025 excavation season at the Makounta Voules/Mersinoudia site in the Paphos district, the department of antiquities said on Monday.
An archaeological team from North Carolina State University made the discovery between June 15 and July 17 last year.
The find provides significant evidence for studying Chalcolithic burial practices in Cyprus and allows comparisons with sites like Souskiou, the department said.
