The houses collapsed or damaged at Enkomi have moreover been almost entirely repaired or rebuilt.
In one of the houses by the rampart of floor II, a group of bronzes including a seated deity on a throne in the form [illegible] of Fagouali was tried during this same.
Their two searches made in the rubble after the catastrophe, only the throne could be recovered by its owners.
The stratette, on the other hand, remained buried under the rubble and we found it again.
The holding was then also of a new stratigraphy whose dimensions were found [illegible] in comparison with the siege.
Thus finally, the bronze put back in place in the new house built over the spared ruins of those which had collapsed finally the stratette and its throne were taken out at a layer similar in floor I, when the population of Enkomi began to put its valuables in safety as the danger approached which was to cause the final destruction of the city, and the part of a whole series of similar hoards, found in level I, of Enkomi.
Characterised stratigraphically by the pottery of the Myrtle Ahite, clearly dominant and mixed with technically evolved examples in the sub-geometric style, the last level of Enkomi corresponding to floors I and III (Mycenaean IIIC ?) is closely rain of bronze and ivory objects.
