NOTES

1. The location depends on the constraints: 1. About two miles south of Apliki (F2993), 2. About 300 m. in elevation 3. The Cyprus copper mines site has cut into the west edge. (Area C) 4. About 8 km. from the coast. This position satisfies these constraints.

2. In WIJN02, 169: 'Apliki-Karamallos has been interpreted as a mining settlement.'
