The project
In 1967 a Cypro-Archaic II tomb came to light in the elementary-school yard at the northern edge of Trikomo, and was recorded as CS 16431. It held mainly undecorated plain jugs, an East Greek jar 21.5 cm high and an East Greek skyphos 10.5 cm in diameter1. The report says the location of the cemetery had long been known to looters1. Vassos Karageorghis reported the tomb in his Chronique des fouilles et découvertes archéologiques à Chypre en 19671.
