Priestley spaces (= ordered compact spaces) have coproducts corresponding to products of bounded distributive lattices. The order structure of these coproducts is not yet fully understood. The authors prove that a coproduct of finite connected acyclic Priestley spaces is acyclic. (Cycles are meant for the ``predecessor or successor'' relation.)
