Excavation of the ancient city of Kourion on the island of Cyprus revealed a pattern of debris and collapsed buildings typical of towns devastated by earthquakes. Archaeologists have hypothesized that the destruction was due to a major earthquake known to have occurred near the island in AD 365.
The statement 'No coins minted after AD 365 were found in Kourion, but coins minted before that year were found in abundance' most strongly supports the archaeologists' hypothesis.
