(225.) 
No. 182. A sepulchral solid urn, with a bas-relief representing 
three figures, one of which is seated. The inscription presents us 
wdth the* following names: Archagoras, Pythyllis, and Polystrasus.

form than in the inscription of the same kind, No. 379. (216.) 
No. 186. A sun-dial, with four different dials represented on as 
many faces. The inscription imports that it is the work of Phsedrus, 
the son of Zoilus, of the deme Paeania. From the form of the letters 
of this inscription, the sun-dial cannot have been made much earlier 
than the time of the Emperor Severus. It w^as found at Athens.

people of Athens in honour of Hosacharus, a Macedonian. This de¬

desses, Latona and Diana, in procession. Similar bas-reliefs, in a

the street at Athens, called “ The-Tripods.” (lok)
