of this inscription, the sun-dial cannot have been made much earlier 
than the time of the Emperor Severus. It was found at Athens. 
(285.) 
No. 187. A fragment of a Greek inscription : it is a decree of the 
people of Athens in honour of Hosacharus, a Macedonian. This de¬ 
cree was passed in the Archonship of Nicodorus, in the 3rd year of the 
116th Olympiad. (280.) 
No. 187*. Part of the capital of an Ionic column. (306*.) 
No. 187**. 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. 118. A solid urn, or cenotaph, in the front of which two figures, 
a man, and a woman named Ada, are represented joining hands. The 
former is standing, the latter is seated. (110.) 
No. 189. A fragment of a bas-relief, representing a procession of 
three figures, the last of which carries a large basket on his head: they 
are accompanied by two children. (284.) 
No. 190. A fragment of a bas-relief, representing two of the god¬ 
desses, Latona and Diana, in procession. Similar bas-reliefs, in a 
more perfect state, are preserved in the Albani Collection. The temple 
which is here introduced is probably that of Apollo, which stood in 
the street at Athens, called ‘‘The Tripods.” (103.) 
No. 191. A fragment of the upper part of a sepulchral stele. (95.) 
No. 192. A solid funeral urn, of large dimensions. It has a bas- 
relief in front, representing Pamphilus, son of Mixiades, of the deme 
iEgilia, standing and joining hands with Archippe, his sister, who is 
seated. (237.) 
No. 193. A bas-relief, representing a Bacchanalian group, found 
among the ruins of the theatre of Bacchus, on the south-west of the 
Acropolis. It consists of four figures, each carrying a thyrsus; viz., 
Bacchus, dressed in the Indian costume, who with his right hand 
is holding out a cantharus, into which a female Bacchante is pouring 
wine from an oinochoe. On each side of these figures is Silenus, 
in a dancing attitude, and one of them is glancing his eye at the 
contents of a large crater of wine placed on the ground. (235.) 
No. 194. The upper part of the head of the goddess Pasht; it is 
remarkable for being ornamented with a crown of serpents, similar to 
that which is mentioned in the Rosetta inscription. (105.) 
No. 195. A very large funeral urn, solid, and without any in¬ 
scription. It has three figures in bas-relief; the first of these is clothed 
in a tunic and is seated; the second is a warrior standing up and join¬ 
ing hands with the former; and the third is a boy carrying a large cir¬ 
cular shield. (228.) 
No. 196. A fragment of a bas-relief, representing a female figure 
seated in a chair, with a child standing by her side; the upper part of 
the woman is wanting. This fragment is probably part of a sepulchral 
monument. (162.) 
No. 197. A bas-relief, imperfect, representing a charioteer driving 
four horses at full speed; a figure of Victory is flying towards him with 
a crown. (236.)
