MTIA,

Located at a place called Hiloftes-Thergio, east of the village of Kavousi of Ierapetra. The height is 50m. Towards the north east there is a sheer cliff called "The Sword of Homata" where one can see graphic layers of *Filitis* and slabs of calcareous rock-crystal and Dolmadic rock. The rock in the area of the caves is Dolmadic type from the Tertiary period. Above the cave there is a small intrusion of aluminum, and the local people refer to it as "Blade " or "Agolifa". |

| | fyllite | Explanation:
I think you have mispelled this from the website on which it occurs. This is fyllites/phyllites. GIven that the author talks of layers (that are typical of a slate form). This is not translated in Dutch as it is an acknowledged name for a type of rock |

| Grading comment Thanks! That seems to be the right answer, but I didn't misspell though; this is how the text was given to me :-)
