Abstract: Let $RoS$ be a cyclically pure map of rings essentially of finite type over the complex numbers $mathbbC$. In this paper, we show that if $S$ has Du Bois singularities, then $R$ has Du Bois singularities. Our result is new even when $RoS$ is faithfully flat. As a consequence, we show that under the same hypotheses on $RoS$, if $S$ has log canonical type singularities and $K_R$ is Cartier, then $R$ has log canonical singularities.
