摘要

这座所谓的“海滩塔”是凯里尼亚中世纪遗址中现存的三座塔中最小的一座。塔的平面为半圆形,直径约6米,今天部分被中世纪的城市组织所掩盖,只能从一侧看到。这座俯瞰海港的塔建于12 - 13世纪,位于城墙围场西北内角的基座上。塔的外面有两扇窗户,可能属于后期阶段,作为防御开口太宽了,包括相邻城墙的碎片,这些城墙向东延伸,朝向城堡,向西延伸,朝向海滩城门。凯里尼亚城的城墙防御系统被威尼斯人拆除,当时火药大炮的使用变得普遍,然而,中世纪建筑中仍然保留着痕迹和记录。本文在历史研究的基础上,试图确定这座塔的建造日期,并通过数字测量检查防御工事遗迹,与其他同时期的例子进行比较,并对不同的砌体类型进行比较分析。

The so-called “beach-tower” of Kyrenia city walls, Cyprus
The so-called “beach-tower” is the smallest of the three remaining towers belonging to the Kyrenia’s medieval enceinte. Semi-circular in plan, with circa 6 m of diameter, the tower is today partially obliterated by the medieval urban tissue and is visible only from one side. Built during the twelfth-thirteenth centuries, this harbour overlooking tower is raised on a pedestal in the north-west inner corner of the city walled enclosure. The tower shows on the outside two windows that might belong to a later phase, being too wide as defensive openings, and includes fragments of the adjoining city walls that ran to the east, towards the castle and to the west towards the beach city gate. Kyrenia city’s walled defensive system was dismantled by the Venetians when the use of gunpowder cannon became prevalent, however, traces and records still remain enshrined in the medieval constructions. The paper, following the historical research, attempts to date the construction of this tower, and by examining the fortification remains with a digital survey, applies the comparison with other coeval examples together with the comparative analysis of the different masonry types.
