and preserves at the upper part a sheet of gold which probably covered the body. It is similar to the one found by Mr Schaeffer at Minetel-Beida and dated to the XV and XIV centuries (See Ugaritica pl. XXV ). The second statuette represents a deity seated and recalls in its style the statuette in ivory of a deity found at Ras-Shamra by Mr Schaeffer (Ugaritica I pl. XXVIII ). The latter is attributed by the distinguished archaeologist to Hurrian art and is dated by him to the XIX- XVII century. The discovery of these statuettes at the site of Enkomi is of an importance particular, it confirms the existence of the close relations of this town with the Syrian coast and especially with the Ramsès port of Minet-el-Beida and with Ugarit, relations that Mr Schaeffer has already brought into relief.
