Prehistoric Cyprus

The Prehistoric Period is the oldest part of Cypriot history. This article covers the period 10,000 to 800 BCE and ends immediately before written records of civilizations, such as the first mention of Cyprus by the Romans.
==Epipalaeolithic==
Cyprus was not settled in the Paleolithic (before agriculture) which allowed survival of numerous dwarf forms, such as dwarf elephants (''Elephas cypriotes'') and pygmy hippos (''Hippopotamus minor'') well into the Holocene. These animals are thought to have arrived on the island as a result of being swept out to sea while swimming off the coast of the nearby mainland. There are claims of an association of this fauna with artifacts of Epipalaeolithic foragers at Aetokremnos near Limassol on the southern coast of Cyprus. The extinction of the pygmy hippos and dwarf elephants has been linked to the earliest arrival of ''Homo sapiens'' on Cyprus. There is evidence of this because of the piles of burned bones in the camps occupied by these early humans in caves on the southernmost point on the Island.
