Scope note
Refers to the style of works produced by the Keros-Syros culture in the Cycladic archipelago between circa 2800 and 2200 BCE, a period roughly corresponding to the Early Cycladic. Though works of art encompass marble vessels and figures, pottery, and metalwork, significant developments include the introduction of new forms, including the fying pan type, and painted decoration in pottery, and the appearance of a variety of marble figures including the folded-arm type and representations of musicians and seated figures.
