Dear Mr. Plenderleith,

Thank you very much for your corrected proof returned. I shall certainly change in the french caption domancon into mlay and I hope to make the change also in my article if this is not too late.

I am rather worred by the news that the coloured photographs and the photo mountags have been dispatched to my Libya address, I think you meant my Beyrouth (Liban) address already on 2 december 21st. They have not been forwarded and as there is in Beyrouth (Institut Francais d'Archéologie, B.P. 14·24) a very careful secretary, he would have sent the letter to me I think if it had arrived. Perhaps the letter was not sent by air that would explain the delai. I hope if you rgistred.

Yours sincerely, C. F.-A. Schaeffer.

P.S. the exhibition of the book has been postponed until Jan ready with my book and article. I think in sept. then the other colour book can from Nicosia by Diplow by reached you.
