Abstract
The examination of figurines is integral when attempting to demonstrate the cultural hybridity of the Eastern Mediterranean during the Late Bronze Age. With scholars attempting to understand their role within society to no prevail, this study will attempt to examine the form, detail, and gestures of both Mycenaean and Cypriot figurines in order to garner a greater understanding of the intention behind their usage. In considering the deposition and context of these figurines, it may also be possible to identify similarities in regard to the function and importance of figurines, thus indicating this ideology was shared by both cultures.
