| Background |
| Site Description | The Monastery of Chrysorogiatissa was founded by the monk Ignatios in 1152, during the reign of the Byzantine emperor Manuel I Comnenus, following the discovery of the icon of the Virgin on the shores of Paphos, which according to tradition is one among the seventy known to have been painted by Apostle and Evangelist Luke. Despite being one of the most famous pilgrimage destinations of Cyprus, as well as one of the oldest Monasteries of the island, the foundation of which is connected with a valuable relic, the monastery of Chrysoroyiatissa has never been made the object of extensive research.

| Project Description | For overcoming the lack of documentary evidence regarding the history of the Monastery of Chrysoroyiatissa, it is necessary to turn to other sources, from which indirect historical evidence could be extracted. This being said, the case study in question aims at acquiring additional and fresh evidence regarding the millenary existence of the Monastery, by bringing to light new historical evidence through the digitization and extensive documentation of movable artefacts belonging to it. It is not possible to digitize and document the ensemble of the movable artefacts of the Monastery, Therefore, the preparatory work which will be undertaken will allow us to choose those bearing explicit information or indirect evidence about the history of the Monastery. |
