The project
In 1963 a Middle Cypriot III tomb, which the report calls poor, was found at Sandeni, about 1 km east of Syrianokhori, and reported under the Department of Antiquities1. It contained a White-Painted V jug, a Black-Slip II jug and a skeleton in situ1. Karageorghis suggests in his chronicle of discoveries for 1963 that the find indicates a cemetery not previously identified1.
