236 GALLERY OF ANTIQUITIES. [ELGIN 
todice, Aristarchus, and Athenais, natives of Sestus. Presented , in 
1785, by the Dilettanti Society. (236*.) 
No. 337. Part of the stem of a candelabrum ornamented with four 
female figures, one of which is playing on the lyre, and the others, with 
joined hands, are leading the dance. (124.) 
Nos. 338, 339. Fragments of colossal statues. (265, 269.) 
No. 340. A part of a colossal foot, probably belonging to a figure 
in one of the pediments of the Parthenon. (244.) 
No. 341. The left, knee of a colossal statue of very fine work: it 
has probably belonged to a figure in one of the pediments of the Par¬ 
thenon. (256.) 
No. 342. Fragment of a statue. (268.) 
No. 343. Ditto. (144.) 
No. 344. An amphora. (176.) 
No. 345. A funeral inscription to the memory of Polyllus; it 
consists of one line in prose, and two in verse. The line in prose 
gives us only the name and titles of Polyllus, and the verses intimate 
that Polystratus had erected a statue to the deceased, and had placed 
it under the protection of Minerva; the marble on which this in¬ 
scription is cut formed a part of the base on which the statue stood. 
(292.) 
No. 346. A Greek inscription, relating to the Erythrasans : the 
characters are very ancient. (288.) 
No. 347. A fragment of a decree of the Athenians, engraved on a 
very large piece of marble. So much has been broken away from this 
inscription, that the precise object of it is not easily collected : it is or¬ 
dained, however, that the decree shall be fixed up in the Acropolis. 
(281.) 
No. 348. A very ancient Greek inscription, which has served as an 
epitaph on the tomb of the Athenian warriors killed at Potidaea. This 
inscription, which originally consisted of twelve elegiac verses, has suf¬ 
fered from the injuries of time. (290.) 
No. 349. Fragment of a figure. (145.) 
No. 350. Fragment of a Greek inscription, very imperfect. (195.) 
No. 351. A sepulchral stele, with an ornament of flowers on the 
summit. It is inscribed with the names of Hippocrates and Baucis. 
(175.) 
Nos. 352—360. Casts in plaster of the frieze of the Choragic 
Monument of Lysicrates, commonly called the Lanthorn of Demos¬ 
thenes. The subject of this frieze is the story of Bacchus and the 
Tyrrhenian pirates. (A. 89, 97, 96, 95, 94, 93, 92, 91, 90.) 
No. 361. A fragment, of a bas-relief, representing an elderly man 
before one of the gods, probably Bacchus, who appears to hold a vase 
in his right hand. (84.) 
No. 362. A fragment of a decree of the people of Tenos, in honour 
of some benefactor, whose name is not preserved on the marble. (232.) 
No. 363. A fragment of a public act relating to the people of 
Athens and Myrina. (234.) 
No. 364. A fragment of a public act of the Athenians ; it consists 
of twenty-one imperfect lines, and seems to relate to the repair of the 
pavements and roads in the neighbourhood of Athens. (233.)
