| Sumario: | The Perfume Theme Park Museum of Cyprus’ research protocol of Experimental Archaeology, aims at verifying hypotheses of ancient perfume manufacturing processes, to formulate a possible comparison with modern realities derived from the island’s ancient cultural heritage. What has recently emerged from international investigations is that distillation is a very ancient art, which existed for many centuries before its parameters and functions were formalised. It may have been born before use of ceramics, suggesting that the need to distil created clay apparatus/alembic, not the contrary (Belgiorno 2017, pp. 51-59). |
