NOTES

1.  Page numbers in Renfrew [2011] are, in actuality, location numbers in the electronic edition, ISBN 978-1-78570-773-5.

2.  This position computed from Renfrew's [2011] coordinates.  The coordinates for Zas cave (Kindle position 11436, no. 36. In M.A.P. C6739) are 885 320.  The coordinates in Renfrew [2011] for Bebekos (Kindle position 11423, no. 29) are 930 280.  This implies that the final position of Bebekos is 4500 m. E of Zas and 4000 m. S. This is the location that I have used.  Wong [2020] Fig. 1 gives a different position about 1100 km. to the NW (37.005819° N, 25.544117° E).
