DEPARTMENT OF ANTIQUITIES CYPRUS

16th July, 1956Dear Jack,

Dr. Dikaios received your letter of 10th July the very day he was taking the boat for Europe and he left it to me to deal with your problems.

1. Kalorizicki tombs: photographs have been prepared, but as their scale was too small no numbers appear on the pots and they will have to be identified. We have given this utmost priority and hope to have them ready soon.

2. Pot drawings: A few days ago we sent another case of pots to Christophis, and I believe that covers the whole lot.

Please do not hesitate to write to me for any further problems during the Curator's absence.

Yours ever,

Handwritten: Vassos
