1.  Hood [1981] 2 gives directions to this site by using azimuths. The site is said to bear 185° to the church of Prophetes Ilias (F6559). The Armolia church to which it bears 349° is probably Ayiou Demetriou church at F6561. The 'church at the northern end of Kalamoti village' is probably Ayia Kyriake (F6562).
