236 W. Theobald — Notes on some of the symbols found on the [No. 3, 
128. Two .SEMiciECUiiAB OBJECTS IN A Rectangdlae Aeea. Fig. 202. 
These objects recall the caps of the Dioscuri, in Bactrian coins of 
a later period, but it may be doubted if these are the objects intended. 
It is not quite clear, from the condition of tho coin, if there may not be 
a third similar object, now effaced. 
129. A Ceoss enclosing foue ‘ Taurines ’ with fode Ceosses outside. 
Fig. 177. 
This symbol partakes of a Rosicrucian character. In the centre 
of this cross is a dot, or it may be a ‘ rose ’. Round this central dot, four 
‘ Taurines ’ arranged with the points directed outwards, whilst in the 
outside angles formed by the areas of the cross, are inserted four circles 
each containing a cross. 
130, A Boat (?). Fig. 60. 
This is a very obscure symbol. If the symbol represents a boat, the 
central object must represent a standard with a crescent at the top, and 
a mast on either side of it, with sloped yards : or these ‘ masts ’ may be 
the poles used for raising water from wells by means of a long lever, 
whilst the central object may represent a ‘ thyrsos ’ or staff in tho midst 
of the garden ; the vessel wherein they stand, however, is not so easy to 
explain, if not a boat. 
131. Five dots ranged round an oval. Fig. 200. 
This a curiously obscure symbol. I have sometimes been inclined 
to consider it intended for the foot-print of some animal, as a bear ; but 
the idea is not probable. 
132. Two ‘ chatras ’ AND two shields, on a sphere, with a ‘ Taurine ’ 
above and a handle apparently below. Fig. 106. 
This symbol resembles No. 103, in seeming to be provided with a 
handle. At the top is a ‘ Taurine ' and on the sides are two ‘ chatras ’ 
separated by two triangular shields with their apices inwards. 
133. Wheel of four Spokes with four ‘ Taurines’. Fig. 150. 
This wheel is of course a solar emblem. 
134. Sphere or Wheel with eight short rays. Fig. 145. 
It may possibly be a variant of fig. 142.
