Lost Ancient Sanctuary Of Apollo Found 100 Years After Being Forgotten

Lost ancient Sanctuary of Apollo found 100 years after being forgotten Search for: Archaeologists excavating near ancient Tamassos have located one of the most important sanctuaries discovered in Cyprus to date, more than 100 years after its exact position was forgotten, the department of antiquities said on Wednesday. The Sanctuary of Apollo at Frangkissa, with its wealth of sculptures, was subject to a rescue operation in 1885 by the German archaeologist Max Ohnefalsch-Richter. Most of the finds were taken to museums abroad although some, including the famous Colossus of Tamassos, are in the Cyprus Museum in Nicosia. The Sanctuary of Apollo’s location was subsequently forgotten and sought in vain through the years.
