History
Kourion was a major city‑kingdom from the tenth century BC and its theatre and mosaics reflect long Greco‑Roman occupation; Kolossi Castle later anchored Crusader-era agricultural production, including early forms of Commandaria wine.
Conservation
Archaeological sites require respectful foot traffic and no climbing on mosaics; coastal zones and turtle nesting beaches are protected—keep noise and litter to a minimum and follow guide instructions.
