A paper in the International Journal of Nautical Archaeology added 23 possible ships to the graffiti on a Late Bronze Age temple at Kition this week, and Liverpool received a thesis on how Late Bronze Age pottery was made. A group set up to find the Napried, the ship that sank in 1872 with antiquities shipped by Luigi Palma di Cesnola, set out its plans, a Larnaca MP asked when the town's finds will go on show, and the Department of Antiquities announced a full-moon evening at the odeon of Paphos.
