Tarih boyunca, Kıbrıs Doğu Akdeniz'in komşu bölgelerine uzanan kültürel ve ekonomik iletişimin bir basamak taşı olarak düşünülmüştür. Kıbrıs'ın lokalizasyonun önemi genellikle kültürel ve ticari alışveriş açısında ele alınmıştır. 7. yüzyılın ilk yarısında Kıbrıs’ın Yakın Doğu’daki stratejik önemi açıkça bilinmektedir. Ada üzerindeki Mısır’ın kısmi kontrolü bulunmaktaydı, bu nedenle bu bölgenin savunulması imkansız olmasa bile oldukça zordu. Bu çalışma, 7. yüzyılın ilk yarısında adanın askeri önemine dikkat çekmek için hazırlanmıştır.
