Letter from Megaw to Schaeffer on divergent interpretations of the chronologyArthur Hubert Stanley Megaw

Continued from scan 10

… in our present campaign; but if like so much of what has been recovered already it is equivocal and undecisive, we must hope that the discovery of the indisputable proof, which I feel, as you do, must be found in the end, will not be long delayed.

I must apologise for a rather voluminous letter and also for the fact that the first report on our work at Enkomi should have appeared to call in question your own conclusions. We did not assume that there must be exact parallelism between the stratification of our area and yours and I am sure it never occurred to Dikaios to contest your interpretation of the discoveries you have made without studying the evidence for it, to which we so much look forward in Enkomi I.

Yours sincerely,
