Alexander types struck in Cyprus. He conclusively showed
that a series of these coins was struck at Kition and Salamis
and others at Paphos and Marion. Mr. NewelTs paper,
which is a model of numismatic method, involved the exami-
nation of thousands of specimens, including the great Daman-
hur hoard, and exhaustive references to all the chief cabinets,
public and private.
The value of the record of local finds in fixing the attribu-

of the Greek cities has been
