Unlike the French travelers of the nineteenth century, those of the years 1480 to 1550 have not considered Cyprus as a country with specific links with the kingdom of France, despite the long period of Lusignan's domination. In their eyes, the island was a country part of the Christian West, even if the indigenous population had specifics ritual practices; testimonies expressing resentment from the Frankish elites against Venice are exceptional.
