History

1955
Saul Weinberg carries out trials 'for the University of Missouri' at Phaneromeni near Episkopi: Early Cypriot II and III houses and an EC II cemetery of a dozen chamber tombs with an unusual dromos-corridor over 9 m long. Megaw had announced the plan in 1954 and notes larger areas hoped for in 1957.
