The Romans ruled Cyprus from 58 BCE to around 330 CE.
While in Cyprus they built roads, harbors, theaters, baths, aqueducts, temples and villas.
In 1962 a farmer ploughing his field in Paphos accidentally unearthed Roman ruins, specifically, the remaining floor mosaics of opulent villas.
These mosaics are considered amongst the finest in the world. They are vibrant records of the everyday life of the Romans as well as the mythological legends of gods, goddesses and heroes.
The Archaeological Park of Kato in Paphos is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
