A single long, slender object photographed upright on a grey card mount, tapering to a point at the lower end. Its pale, mottled surface has a raised band near the upper end and another near the lower end, and several cracks run along its length. No scale is shown.
Description, scan 4
Five disc-shaped objects lie in a row across a grey card mount. From left: a dark, worn disc, a plain smooth disc, a disc with an interlaced looped design around a central motif, a broken disc with a band of notched marks near its rim, and a large disc with arc and scallop-like patterns. Numbers written beneath the row are cut off by the bottom edge.
Description, scan 5
Three small round objects with dark central holes lie side by side on a grey surface. The left and right objects have ridged or grooved outer edges, while the middle one is larger and smooth with a worn, mottled surface. A dark rectangular number label sits below them, and the pale tones make the material hard to judge from the photograph.
Description, scan 6
A round, flat disc with a small central hole, shown on a light mounted card. Its surface has incised straight lines forming a grid near the centre and a border of concentric rings and scalloped arcs. The disc is broken across its middle, with chipped edges and a rough, worn surface, and a handwritten label is partly visible at the lower edge of the card.

Finds from Enkomi Tomb 6 are laid out in rows on a plain light surface, each with a small black number card. Round discs with incised concentric bands and a central hole sit along the bottom, with a corroded arched ring, a long slender rod and a shallow dome with a central boss above. Tiny rings and beads sit at the upper right, and two long flat pieces lie at the top centre.

Two round objects with central holes lie side by side on a grey ground. The larger one on the left has a plain, mottled surface, while the smaller one on the right has concentric circle patterns around its edge. Below them, on a black card, a small number label is visible.
Description, scan 9
Two photographs are mounted together on a grey card. The upper one shows a thick, dark ring outline on a pale ground. The lower one, on a black background, shows three small light objects: a pair of linked rounded pieces, a rounded lump and a small ring with a dark centre.
Description, scan 10
A dark, heavily corroded ring-shaped object, thick and roughly circular, with a gap at the bottom where the two ends stop. Its surface is pitted and encrusted with pale patches. A small black square label with a handwritten number sits in the centre of the ring on a plain grey card, and a few pencil marks show near the lower left.
