in a dancing attitude, and one of them is glancing his eye at the 
contents of a large crater of wine placed on the ground. (235.) 
No. 194. The upper part of the head of the goddess Pasht; it is 
remarkable for being ornamented with a crown of serpents, similar to 
that which is mentioned in the Rosetta inscription. (105.)' 
No. 195. A very large funeral urn, solid, and without any in¬ 
scription. It has three figures in bas-relief; the first of these is clothed 
in a tunic and is seated; the second is a warrior standing up and join¬ 
ing hands with the former; and the third is a boy carrying a large cir¬ 
cular shield. (228.) 
No. 196. A fragment of a bas-relief, representing a female figure 
seated in a chair, with a child standing by her side; the upper part of 
the woman is wanting. This fragment is probably part of a sepulchral 
monument. (162.) 
No. 197. A bas-relief, imperfect, representing a charioteer driving 
four horses at full speed; a figure of Victory is flying towards him with 
a crown. (236.) 
No. 198. A fragment of a bas-relief, representing part of the body 
and legs of a boy. (109.) 
No. 199. A cinerary urn, ornamented in front with four standing 
figures ; two of these in the centre, are joining hands, the other two are 
in a pensive attitude. The names of all the figures were originally in¬ 
scribed on the urn ; the first name is not legible; the others are Philia, 
Metrodora, and Meles. (148.) 
No. 199*. A bronze um, very richly wrought. It was found in¬ 
closed within the marble vase in which it now stands, in a tumulus on 
the road that leads from Port Pirseus to the Salaminian ferry and 
Eleusis. At the time of its discovery, this beautiful urn contained a 
quantity of burnt bones, a small vase of alabaster, and a wreath of myrtle 
in gold. (300.) 
No. 199**. A large marble vase ; it is of an oval form, and within 
it was found the bronze urn described in the preceding number. (301.) 
No. 199***. A circular votive altar, ornamented wdth the heads of 
bulls, from which festoons are suspended. The inscription, in Greek, 
near the bottom, is a prayer for the prosperity and health of a person 
named Casiniax. (91.) 
No. 200. A small female figure, covered with drapery; it is without 
a head. (90.) 
No. 201. A sepulchral column of Thalia, the daughter of Callistratus, 
of Aexone. (149.) 
No. 202. A votiv'e Greek inscription, dedicated by Gorgias the 
gymnasiarch. (224.) 
No. 203. A decree of the people of Tenos, in honour of Am.monius, 
their benefactor : this decree is directed to be engraved on marble, and 
afhxed in the temple of Neptune and Amphitrite. Strabo and Tacitus 
mention a celebrated temple that was dedicated to Neptune in this 
island, and it is highly probable that the same temple w^as dedicated to 
Amphitrite, as well as to Neptune. Neptune and his symbols frequently 
occur on the coins of Tenos. (231.) 
No. 204. A fragment of a bas-relief, on wRich are represented part 
of the skin of an animal and the branch of a tree. (158.)
