By the way, the minotaur - the bull - is one of the symbols of Cyprus. It is believed that the Crete island has a shape of a bull. Even copper ingots here were smelted in the form of a bull skin. Well, the name of the island comes to us from the Latin "cuprum" - copper. The house belongs to the procurator of Cyprus. Apparently, it was built in the 3rd century AD. Who knows, maybe traditionally at this place stood the house of another proconsul of Cyprus in the 51st year BC, the famous Cicero. This great orator was not spared by the unrest after the death of Caesar and became a mockery of the crowd.
