The ancient site is located on a high plateau on the eastern Kouris river bank. During the 2021 season, four relevant coeval contexts different in use and function have been excavated, aiming to clarify aspects of the ideology and social development of the prehistoric community of Erimi.

The investigation of the workshop complex on the top of the hill revealed that this area, mainly intended for the production of dyed textiles, had a pivotal role and a peculiar ideological significance for the Erimi community. By extending the investigated area towards the northern wing of the complex a series of three new roofed units (SA XIII, SA XIV, SA XV) were fully excavated.

The fieldwork season involved a team of archaeologists of the University of Siena and Pisa, with a joint support of an Archaeobotanist from Τhe Cyprus Institute and a team of two Restorers from the Conservation School of the University of Torino.

The fieldwork was carried out under permit and thanks to the scientific collaboration of the Department of Antiquities of Cyprus, in an on-going positive collaboration with the staff of the Archaeological Museum of the Lemesos District as well as of the Local Archaeological Kourion Museum in Episkopi.
