About 120 antiquities from Cyprus and Italy went on show at Castel Sant'Angelo in Rome on 27 February, in an exhibition opened by the two countries' presidents. Earlier in the week, a paper on gold diadems and mouth-pieces from the Late Bronze Age tombs of Hala Sultan Tekke came out in the Oxford Journal of Archaeology, and in Nicosia an exhibition on three women of the Venetian city opened in the old town hall on the D'Avila Bastion.
