1.Taking over of Cyprus Museum's share. We propose to do this in two stages:
(i)Items to be removed to Nicosia in the first instance. These will be (a) the items mentioned by their individual numbers in para.1 of the letter; (b) the contents of the scentre tomb; (c) a selection of the best sculpture in our share, of which Dikaios will make a list on his next visit (he returns to Nicosia on 27th August). A list of the items handed over and taken over should be prepared and signed by both you and him. (ii) The remainder will be left in the other apotheke (the East one?) for the time being in charge of our staff. When this material is ready a shelf-list should be prepared, agreed and signed by representatives of the Expedition and of the Department.
In due course we will enter up in our copy of the inventory the disposition of each item.
