The project
In 1983 the Department of Antiquities of Cyprus recorded Tomb 5 at Kokkinokremos, Yermasoyia, a tomb of Cypro-Archaic II to Cypro-Classical I date in a cemetery previously unknown1. It had already been partly robbed and produced only pottery described as typical of the Amathus region1. The annual report lists it under the acquisitions of the Limassol District Museum as LMRR 9361. V. Karageorghis published the entry in his Chronique des fouilles et découvertes archéologiques à Chypre en 1983, in the Bulletin de correspondance hellénique.
