    The present paper is an attempt to provide an approximate treatment based on Biots theory of incremental deformation to study the wave propagation in thinly two layered laminated medium under initial stresses. The cross- sectional distortion which plays an important role in the coupling of adherent layers is taken into account. The theory is derived in the context of plane strain deformation and the frequency equation for phase velocity of wave propagation has been obtained. It has been shown that under certain conditions when wave length becomes small compared to thickness of each layer, the wave approaches to Rayleigh waves at the two outer surfaces with the possibility of Stoneley waves at the interface.
