According to V. Karageorghis, "Bearded human figures wearing conical headdresses, made in both limestone and terracotta, have a long history in Cypriot sculpture, dating from the end of the seventh to the fifth century B.C. These sculptures represent priests or dignitaries, though ordinary people wore the same headdress" (Ancient Art from Cyprus, The Cesnola Collection in The Metropolitan Museum of Art, p. 106).
