Evidence is presented for two J{sup p} = 2{minus} strange mesons; one at {approx} 1.77 and the other at {approx} 1.82 GeV/c{sup 2}. These states have been observed in a partial wave analysis of the K{sup {minus}}{omega} system in the reaction K{sup {minus}}p {yields} K{sup {minus}}{pi}+{pi}{sup {minus}}{pi}{sup 0}p where the strange mesons decay into K{sup {minus}}{omega} and the {omega} then decays to {pi}+{pi}{sup {minus}}{pi}{sup 0}. The data set contains {approx} 10{sup 5} K{sup {minus}}{omega}p events at 11 GeV/c taken with the LASS spectrometer at SLAC.
