EIKONOLOGION

 

The EIKONOLOGION constitutes the Digital Archives of the Natural and Cultural Heritage of Cyprus. This pionneering project has been realised thanks to a generous grant by TOTAL E&P CYPRUS. The initial collection of more than 38.000 documents donated by the founder of the Centre of Cultural Heritage, Dr. Sophocles Sophocleous, has been digitised and it is since 2017 available to the international academic community, as well as to the wide public. The EIKONOLOGION contains at this very moment more than 50.000 photographic documents classified in 34 categories.

 

EIKONOLOGION, by its nature and use, will always be a scientific research project under development and re-adapted according to the evolution of technology. As a platform, EIKONOLOGION is an instrument for research, where, collaborators from the international academic community can upload their photographic archives and keep the copyright for them, after getting permission from the Centre of Cultural Heritage.
