in the temple of Themis at Rhamnus in Attica. Presented, 
in 1820, by John P. Gandy Peering, Esq . (307*.) 
No. 114. A piece of the shaft of a column, belonging to 
the temple of Erechtheus at Athens. (304.) 
No. 115. A bronze urn, very richly wrought. It was 
found inclosed within the marble vase in which it now 
stands, in a tumulus on the road that leads from Port 
Piraeus 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. 116. 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. 117. A circular votive altar, ornamented with 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. 118. A piece of the shaft of a column, belonging to 
the temple of Erechtheus at Athens. (303.)

the size of life, and of the most exquisite workman¬ 
ship. (306.) 
No. 120. Part of the capital of an Ionic column. (306*.) 
No. 121. A circular altar, brought from the island of 
Delos. It is ornamented with the heads of bulls, from which 
festoons of fruit and flowers are suspended. (307-) 
No. 122. A sepulchral solid urn, having three figures in 
bas-relief on the front. The first of these is a warrior with 
a helmet and a shield, who is joining hands with an elderly 
man dressed in a long tunic; the third figure is a female. 
The inscription underneath these figures probably contained 
the names of the parties, but is too mutilated to admit of 
being decyphered. (167.) 
No. 123. A sepulchral column, inscribed with the name 
of Anaxicrates, an Athenian, the son of Bexiochus; beneath 
the inscription is the representation of a sepulchral urn, 
executed in very low relief. (240.)

inscribed with the name of Phsedimus of Naucratis.
