Larnaca
Larnaca facts:
Larnaca,
or Larnaka, is a city on the southeast coast of Cyprus. The major
international airport of Cyprus is located in this city. In ancient
times, Larnaca was known as Kition or Citium. The biblical name Kittim,
though derived from Citium, was in fact used quite generally for
Cyprus as a whole, and occasionally by the Hebrews for the Greeks and
Romans. Larnaca is set in wide bay facing Lebanon which has strong
links to the past. The earliest remains go back to the Mycenean age
(ca 1400-1100 BCE) and seem to mark an Aegean colony, but in historic
times Citium was the chief centre of Phoenician influence in Cyprus.
