brought a greek-looking coin - fairly clean - which is in the acid tonight. The main point of his trip was to see if there is a connection between the walls we found below the cypriote temple and our geometric "φρούριον". H. says that there is.

The cypriote temple is in the so-called forest, and is government-owned. the region is called "Αγία Άννα" It is at the bridge you cross (on the Paphos road) just before reaching the tea house (ruined) below the "Temple of Apollo". Richter sank two small pits just below the road, finding masses of broken statuary. That seems to be a dump from the temple, which is adjacent above the road. Aside from one quite insignificant pit, it appears untouched. It was in the probable dump that O.-R. found the bilingual dedication to Demeter and Kore.
