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 Pamphiius, son of Mixiades, of the deme 
JSgilia, 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 
wane 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.)
