is not urgent. The statue being published already, there is only chronological and stratigraphical material to be presented. It would therefore be advisable that his report is not finally prepared before he has the data of my excavations. I shall send you of course a copy of my report to the Academy and also the proofs of Enkomi I as soon as I receive them from the printer.
However, this report and the material from these proofs cannot be included by Dik. in his report before they are published by me. Pending this, he can refer to my dig in general terms and mention the information given in my communiqué. It is the privilege of an excavator to publish his material first. I have for my part never kept my colleagues waiting long until my material was put at their disposal.
Thank you for the copies of Cyprus Mail. With best regards from us both to Mrs. Megaw and you
Yours sincerely C F A Schaeffer .
