Résumé
Several churches, well preserved or in ruins, are still to be seen in the Potamia-Agios Sozomenos area, as well as in its extension to the neighbouring village of Idalion. The corpus comprises the hermitage of Agios Sozomenos, obviously the more ancient Christian monument of the area, the Byzantine church of Panagia (also called Agios Georgios), the church of the Timios Stavros, in the cemetery of the Potamia village, the ruined or totally destroyed churches of Agia Marina, Santa Caterina and Archangelos respectively, the church of Agios Demetrianos at Agridi, the cemetery church of Agios Mamas at Idalion and Agios Mamas at Agios Sozomenos, the only known Cypriot example of a Gothic church in a rural area. It is accurate that there are numerous Byzantine or Gothic monuments which provide clues about the history of the valley in relationship with its water supply.
