Antiquities^ 
No. 220. A piece of a frieze, or architectural 
ornament, from the tomb of Agamemnon, at My¬ 
cenae. The sculpture is exceedingly ancient, and 
consists of two kinds of scroll-work, one of which 
represents the curling of the waves, ar.d the other a 
series of paters which are perfectly fiat and plain. 
The stone is of a brilliant green colour. 
No. 221. Another piece of frieze, or architectu¬ 
ral ornament, from the. same place as the last-men¬ 
tioned article. It consists of three rows of scroll 
work, all of which are similar representations of 
the revolving of the waves. The colour of the 
stone is bright red. 
No. 222. A fragment of a Greek inscription, 
containing a list of Athenians, with the townships 
to which they respectively belonged. We read the 
names of no less than twelve different townships 
in this small fragment; namely, according to the 
order in which they occur, Sunium, Ionidse, Alo- 
pece, Pallene, Hate, Ericea, Colonus, Sphettus, 
Ceriadae, Thorieus, Hepheestia, and Bate. 
No. 223. A votive Greek inscription, dedicated 
by some sailors, as a mark of their gratitude, to
