History
- 1981The CNRS mission (RCP 476, Recherches anthropologiques au Proche et au Moyen-Orient, also funded by the French Ministry of Foreign Relations) under Alain Le Brun ran a new campaign on the Neolithic settlement of Khirokitia; 1981 confirmed that buildings west of Wall 100 are later than it, reconstructing the westward extension.
- 1983–1985Le Brun continued excavations; they confirmed that the supposed 'street' is Wall 100, the western limit of occupation in an early phase.
