In the afternoon, I devote several hours to the Inventory of finds, and to the preliminary cleaning of the objects not yet treated with acid. Meanwhile R.T. resumes the gluing and the sorting of the 6 × 6 photographs. J-P. N. and Mikael are making rapid progress on the drawing inside the Hall. At the end of the day (light rain), only the N-E corner of the Cella still remains to be drawn. At 16h 30, unexpected visit from Vassos Karageorghis, arriving from Salamis, where the disgraceful organisation of the area compels him to ask me kindly to "lend" him Mikael, for two full days, Wednesday and Thursday 24 Oct., so that he may put right the situation.
