Dear Dr. Schaeffer,

In duplicate.

I enclose Dikaios' contribution and photos for the Joint article in the I.L.N.

Handwritten: another

You will see that the excavation of part of the sanctuary in which the statue was found has clarified its stratigraphical position, as you will be able to see when you come. Meanwhile Dikaios will write to you to explain these developments in more detail.

Yours sincerely,

Handwritten: signature

Dr. C.F.A. Schaeffer, M.A. D.Litt., Le Castel Blanc, 14 Rue Turgot, St. Germain-en-Laye, (Seine et Oise).
