Dear Professor Schaeffer,

Thank you for your letters of 25th August and 30th of August as well as your typescript which has been given to the printers already.

With regard to the Kition anchors which you inquire, they have been found in 13th and 12th century levels, but reused as building material.

Yours sincerely,

Handwritten: signature

V. Karageorghis.
