Temple of Apollo Hylates

Temple of Apollo Hylates

The partly restored Temple of Apollo Hylates, one of the main religious centres of ancient Cyprus, where Apollo was worshipped as a god of the woodlands. It seems that the worship of Apollo on this site began as early as the 8th century BCE and continued until the 4th century CE. It has undergone many extensions and alterations in different periods. The majority of what is visible today belongs to the site’s 1st century CE restorations. The severe earthquake of 364-5 CE destroyed the temple.
