Dear Director Megaw, In addition to the two clay tablets already received for study from our 1957 finds, I have selected the items mentioned on the enclosed official letter. I hope it will be possible to deliver them to M. Kuss for transferring them to Paris. — I now want to ask you about the air photographs to be made at Enkomi. Since the last ones several years have passed and as well for your as my publications it would be extremely useful to have new photographs made especially of the following areas : Bâtiment 18, Central or Tempel Area, North Area & general view with the town wall from north to south. - I would be thankful to you for getting in touch with the R.A.F. authorities. - Perhaps Salamis too could be photographed at the occasion

Yours sincerely

ClF.A.Schaeffer.
