Excavation Plans Target Alasia at Nicosia Site
Archaeologists will renew digs at Enkomi in Nicosia late this summer to uncover Alasia, ancient capital of the Peoples of the Sea. Earlier work yielded two thousand finds, including gold ornaments and alabaster, from the Royal Palace destroyed by a 1365 B.C. earthquake under M. Claude Schaeffer. The project aims to illuminate Bronze to Iron Age transitions in the Mediterranean. Kit Carson chose Taos, New Mexico, as his permanent home and museum residence.
