Dear Mr Karageorghis, I thank you for your Report of 1963 and your offprints, which show that you continue your activity as an archaeologist. Keep yourself aloof from the current oppositions, for you have the responsibility for all the monuments and archaeological deposits of your country, and you must win the confidence of Greeks as well as Turks in order to accomplish your mission for the benefit of Cypriot archaeology. I am flooded with Greek political propaganda and not a word from the Turkish side. I pray God that he protects the island and all its inhabitants who are all children of his land whatever race and religion. May your great leader and archbishop extend a hand of friendship and forgiveness towards the Turks, and the miracle of a reconciliation may come about. — I hope that we can return to Enkomi in September. Please find enclosed two plans of the new house for housing the Mission, while my wife and I will stay in the old one, where there will also be the mission's dining room. Please have faire an approximate estimate drawn up for
