Monday 27 September 1965Opening of the 3rd week of excavations. We obtain a new indication of dating of the mud layer covering the area of the West enclosure: a new _sherd of iridescent glass_ and a fragment of _fibula in bronze_, Roman period, at - 0m 80, in the new trench to the East of the large threshold of the West Gate.

- Very abundant recovery of sherds during the continued clearing of the Street level I, to the west of block N 1 some of them are painted and confirm the attribution to an advanced phase of the Cypriot Iron I (of the Enkomi type with rudimentary geometric decoration)

- No object found.
