Between science and art
Professor Irene Manton (1904–1988) was in the vanguard of technical advances in botany through the use of electron microscopy. As well as new techniques and discoveries communicated through a considerable body of scientific publications, she left behind a collection of antiquities spanning a broad range of cultures and dates. Through these objects, Manton investigated intellectual problems in the history of science and communicated her findings w…
British Perceptions of Cyprus and the Production of Ceramics from 1809 to 1920
The advent of British administration of Cyprus in 1878 brought this Mediterranean island to the attention of the British public, whose perceptions and beliefs formed an important context for the development of Government policy.

This paper focuses on a collection of Mediterranean antiquities which survives today from the establishment of the museum. It results from…
Re-collecting Cypriot antiquity
Formed by the Kent family – farmers and landowners from the north of England – the little-known Kent collection brought together antiquities from Greece, Rome, Egypt and Cyprus, alongside weapons, armour, furniture and textiles. On the death of Benjamin Kent in 1968, most of the collection was bequeathed to the Harrogate Corporation, sparking debate on the value of such heterogeneous collections for general public audiences. This article investig…
Stephen Boys Smith, Thomas Sandwith. A British Consul in the Levant 1855-1891
The phase of consular collecting on Cyprus in the mid-1800s, memorably characterised as a ‘mischievous pastime’ in Elizabeth Goring’s book, is well known to historians of Cypriot archaeology thanks in particular to the efforts of Olivier Masson and other contributors to the Cahiers du Centre d’Études Chypriotes over the years, who have helped to set Cypriot archaeology in its broader historical and diplomatic context. Consuls from France, America…
