the group between them the Three Hor^ or Seasons, or the 
Erinnyes or Furies. Three different explanations have been pro¬ 
posed for the scene on the east side [«]. 1. Tantalus bringing to 
Pandarus in Lycia the golden dog stolen from Crete. 2. Asclepios 
(^sculapius), the seated figure, in front Telesphorus, or Ganymedes 
and Artemis, behind him Charis and Pitho, two of the Graces. 3. 
Neptune seated, before him a boy offering a cock, and a' man leaning 
on a staff; behind, Amphitrite and Amymone. On the north side 
[c], at the corners, are two Harpies flying aw^ay with two of the 
daughters of Pandarus^ having been sent for that purpose by Zeu^, to 
avenge the theft and perjury of their father; a third daughter, Aedon, 
who was saved from destruction, is represented fallen on her knees 
and deploring the fate of her sisters. On this side also is a seated di¬ 
vinity, conjectured to be Zeus, or Pluto, under w’hose chair is an ani¬ 
mal, either a bear or boar; before him stands an armed man ; they hold 
a helmet between them. On the south side [d], at the corners, are 
two Harpies bearing off two of the daughters of Pandarus. In the 
centre is a seated divinity, supposed to be Zeus, and a female offer¬ 
ing a dove, perhaps Aphrodite.
