Enkomi - Alasia, 1^st October 1963. Day of the Liberation, Congratulations and Good future for Cyprus.

Dear Director, thanks for your note of 29^th Sept. This is what we call "une tuile". But I would ask you to keep the poterie from the khan a few days until notre new dépôt in the village is prepared. The carpenter is working already. - Hope to see you soon Yours sincerely

CFA Schaeffer.

Dr. Karageorghis, Director Antiquities Nicosia.
