temple of Diana at Daphne, on the road from Athens to 
Eleusis. (A. 44.) 
No. 134. Apiece of the shaft of an Ionic column, belong¬ 
ing to the same temple. (A. 45.) 
No. 135. The base of an Ionic column, likewise belong¬ 
ing to the same temple. (A. 46.) 
Nos. 136—149. Casts in plaster from the frieze of the 
pronaos of the temple of Theseus. The subject of this 
frieze is a battle fought in the presence of six divinities, 
who are represented sitting in the midst of the combatants. 
(A. 55—68.) 
Nos. 150—154. Casts in plaster from the frieze of the 
posticus of the same temple. The subject of these sculp¬ 
tures is the battle of the Centaurs and Lapithae. (A. 69— 
73.) 
Nos. 155—157- Casts in plaster of three of the metopes 
of the north side of the temple of Theseus at Athens. The 
first represents Theseus killing Creon, king of Thebes; the 
second, Theseus overcoming Cercyon, king of Eleusis, in a 
wrestling match; and the third, Theseus killing the 
Crommian sow. (A. 52—54.) 
Nos. 158, 159. Two bas-reliefs, which formed part of 
the frieze of a temple of the Ionic order (near the Propylaea 
at Athens), and dedicated to the Wingless Victory (Nike 
Apteros.) The subject represented on them is a combat 
between the Greeks and Persians. (258, 257.) 
Nos. 160, 161. Two bas-reliefs, from the same temple: 
the combatants appear to be all Greeks. (259, 260.)

perfect. (182.) 
No. 163. Ditto. (183.) 
No. 164. A bas-relief, representing a narrow upright 
vase with one handle: the form of this vase very much 
resembles that of the solid urns, so often used by the 
Greeks as sepulchral monuments. (276.) 
No. 165. A Greek inscription from Athens, signifying 
that certain gifts, which are specified, had been consecrated 
to some goddess, probably Venus, by a female who held 
the office of lighter of the lamps, and interpreter of dreams, 
in the temple of the goddess. The name of this female 
which was no doubt inserted at the beginning of the in¬ 
scription, is now lost. (88.)
