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.
