2 pages handwritten in French; the 1 with writing on them are shown beside a transcription and an English translation.
Made in 1978, after the Turkish invasion of 20 July 1974; it concerns the French mission's work and finds from before the invasion. Enkomi has been in the area occupied by Turkey since then, and nothing in this collection was made at the site after that date.
