CYPRUS: Lempa village [HD]

Lempa (or Lemba) is a village located on top of an escarpment overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, and is set in one of the most fertile parts of Cyprus. The area produces citrus, olives, tomatoes and market-garden vegetables, and is one of the few parts of Europe where commercial banana production is possible.

In 1981, Lempa became home to the Cyprus College of Art. It is home to numerous artists, many of whom have open studio shops, the sculpture known as the Great Wall of Lempa by the Cypriot artist Stass Paraskos and the Cyprus College of Art.

The village is one of the most ancient in Cyprus, and since 1976 has been the site of ongoing archaeological excavations by the School of Archaeology at the University of Edinburgh. In 1982, the Lemba Experimental Village was established as an archaeological project to recreate a Chalcolithic village.

Lempa appears to have been occupied for most of the human history of Cyprus, and much later archaeological remains, including pottery fragments and coins from the Mediaeval period have been found there.

The village located approximately 4 km (2.5 mi) north of the town of Paphos.
