36. A collection of pottery, chiefly with geometric and floral ornaments, painted in 

 black or red on a drab ground. On seven of these vases are painted figures of birds ; on 

 one, figures of deer ; and on another, a serpent eating fruit from a tree. Four are rude 

 imitations of animal forms. On the necks of two are modelled human faces ; on one is a 

 female bust rising in front of the neck of the vase, and holding in her hand a hydria, which 

 forms the spout of the vase. This figure may be Eos, who is represented on a vase 

 (Millingen, Anc. Uned. Monuments, pi. vi.) cari-ying a liydria in each hand. From 

 Cyprus. 



37. Two fragments of the frieze of the Mausoleum, obtained from a Turkish house in 

 Khodes, whither they were probably transported from Budrum by one of the Knights of 

 St. John in the 15th century. On comparing these fragments with those excavated on 

 the site of the Mausoleum in 1856-7, and in 1865, the following discoveries were made: — 

 The two fragments from Rhodes were adjusted respectively to two fragments from the site, 

 one representing a fallen Amazon, the other a Greek warrior. Four fragments were 

 adjusted to the portion of the frieze formerly in the Castle at Budrum, viz. : ( 1 ) part of the 

 chest of the horse on the left of the slab engraved, Monumenti dell' Inst. Arch. Rom. v. 

 pi. 19, fig. iv. ; (2) part of the leg of the fallen figure on the right of the slab, ibid. fig. iii. ; 

 (3) head and right shoulder of warrior on the left of the slab, ibid. fig. ii. ; (4) calf of leg of 

 the warrior across the break of the slab, ihid. pi. 20, figs, ix.-x. Two fragments were 

 adjusted to the part of the frieze discovered by excavation In 1856, viz. : (1) right arm of the 

 Amazon on horseback on the left of the slab, Newton, History of Discoveries,!., pi. 9, 

 lower slab; (2~) part of the arm of a figure on the right side of the slab, ihid. pi. 10, upper 

 slab. Part of the leg of an Amazon in the Imperial Museum at Constantinople has been 

 fitted to the cast of that figure exhibited in the Mausoleum Room. 



38. A bronze figure of a Satyr apparently in the act of dancing. The attitude is very 

 similar to that of the male figure in a group, thought to represent Marsyas and Athena, 

 and to be a copy of a celebrated worlv by Myron. This group occurs in two reliefs 

 (Archaol. Zeitung, 1874, pi. 8), on an Athenian coin, and on an oinoclioe with red figures 

 (Hirschfeld, "VVinckelmannsfest-programm. 1872). The statue of a Satyr in the Museum 

 of the Lateran (.Monumenti dell' Inst. Arch. Rom. vi., pi. 23), is supposed to have formed 

 part of a similar group. The style of the new bronze figure is much later than the date 

 of Myron, and closely resembles that of the Mausoleum frieze and the sculjjtures of the 

 Choragic Monument of Lysikrates. The anatomy is rendered with a precision carried 

 out in the minutest details which is characteristic of the best age of Greek art. The 

 action is spirited, and the gesture of the hands full of expression.
