Antiquities. 
No. 281. A fragment of a decree of the 
Athenians, engraved on a very large piece of 
marble. So much has been broken awav from 
«/ 
this inscription, that the precise object of it is not 
easily collected : is is ordained, however, that 
the decree shall be fixed up in the Acropolis. 
No. 282. A fragment of a Greek inscription, 
engraved in very ancient characters. It seems 
to be a treaty between the Athenians and the 
people of Rhegium, a town of the Bruttii, in Italy. 
No. 283. A Greek inscription, imperfect, en¬ 
graved in very small characters: it is an enu¬ 
meration of the sacred dresses which belonged 
to some temple. 
No. 284. A fragment of a bas-relief, repre¬ 
senting a procession of three figures, the last of 
which carries a large basket on his head: they 
are accompanied by two children. 
No. 285. A sun-dial, with four different dials 
represented on as many faces. The inscription 
imports that it is the work of Phasdrus, the son 
of Zoilus, a native of Pasania. 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 was found at 
Athens. 
No. 286. A fragment of a Greek inscription : 
it consists of twenty lines of very ancient cha¬ 
racters, and seems to be a part of a treaty. 
No. 287. A Greek inscription, imperfect. 
No. 288.
