Abstract
Abstract. The incorporation of the collections from Cyprus into the Département des Antiquités orientales is a typical feature of the Louvre. In the others similar museums they are part of the department of Greek and Roman Antiquities. The first Cypriot pieces acquired from 1851 were displayed in the Musée Assyrien. In 1866 the Amathus vase was installed in the first of the two rooms of this gallery, in the northern wing of the Cour Carrée. As this huge vase is unmovable this gallery remains until now "la salle chypriote".
