Myres writes Bennett on the photographs ("Nos 10 and 11") which are missing from Platon's collection at the Heraklion museum on Crete. He asks Bennett for comparisons in vocabulary lists between Linear B tablets at Knossos and Pylos. He concludes the letter mentioning a recent publication on the etymology of Sappho's name.
