The Howling Man






In addition to a beautiful beach, Larnaca has many shops, cafes, bars, and restaurants. I took the above pictures at the Pierides archaeological museum in downtown Larnaca. The one at the top is a photo of the famous Howling Man statue (5500 B.C.). Though no one is sure what the purpose was, water can be poured into the top of the statue’s head and it will come out of the penis.
