The Mnemata Site is an archaeological excavation site at the Mnemata locality of Larnaca, Cyprus. A tomb was discovered in 1979—during the construction of a refugee settlement. Built over the excavation site, is now a supermarket (named ''Metro'') and its adjoining car parking lot. The site is located on the city block east of the junction of Plateia Mitropoleos and Nikodimou Mylona Street. The site has been referred to as Agios Georgios cemetery, in various interim reports.〔(The Phoenician Period Necropolis of Kition, Volume I )〕 (There are other institutions in the same city that are known as Agios Georgios. One is the Agios Georgios refugee settlement—the other is the cemetery on Agiou Georgiou Kontou Street. (An "Ancient Kition" text on a roadsign, points toward the cemetery on Agiou Georgiou Kontou Street.) Other archaeological sites in its vicinity include the Pervolia Site, located north-east of Mnemata. ==Name== ''Mnemata'' is the name of the locality, and it means "graves". The Mnemata Site is also known as the Agios Georgios cemetery, because a tomb was found in 1979 during the construction of a refugee settlement called ''Agios Georgios''. Other tombs were found on site, later. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mnemata Site」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
