LYCIAN SALOON. 
the group between them the Three Horse or Seasons, or the 
Erinnyes or Furies. Three different explanations have been pro¬ 
posed for the scene on the east side [a~\. 1. Tantalus bringing to 
Pandarus in Lycia the golden dog stolen from Crete. 2. Asclepios 
(iEsculapius), the seated figure, in front Telesphorus, or Ganymedes 
and Artemis, behind him Charis and Pitho, two of the Graces. 3. 
Neptune seated, before him a boy offering a cock, and a man leaning 
on a staff; behind, Amphitrite and Amymone. On the north side 
[c], at the corners, are two Harpies flying away with two of the 
daughters of Pandarus, having been sent for that purpose by Zeus, to 
avenge the theft and perjury of their father; a third daughter. Aedon, 
who was saved from destruction, is represented fallen on her knees 
and deploring the fate of her sisters. On this side also is a seated di¬ 
vinity, conjectured to be Zeus, or Pluto, under whose chair is an ani¬ 
mal, either a bear or boar; before him stands an armed man ; they hold 
a helmet between them. On the south side [d], at the comers, are 
two Harpies bearing off two of the daughters of Pandarus. In the 
centre is a seated divinity, supposed to be Zeus, and a female offer¬ 
ing a dove, perhaps Aphrodite. 
Nos. 2—8. Sculptured slabs representing satyrs, a lion devouring 
a deer, panther, dog, bull, and boar. These form a kind of frieze; 
they are executed in the stone of the country. Acropolis . 
Nos. 9—16. Narrow frieze of cocks and hens, executed in the same 
style. Acropolis. 
Nos. 17—21. Frieze, perhaps from a tomb; a procession of two 
chariots, with old men and youthful charioteers, a led horse, a horseman, 
five figures of priests and priestesses with wands and torches, an armed 
female and a youth standing at the side of a column and chair. Acro¬ 
polis. 
No. 21*. Fragment, apparently part of a chair. 
No. 22. Bas-relief, part of two draped females wearing sandals, one 
raises with her left hand the border of her talaric tunic. 
No. 23. Triangular fragment, probably the gable end of a tomb ; a 
male and female figure seated, one on each side of an Ionic column, 
on the top of which is a Harpy. Traces of colour remain on this 
slab. Acropolis. 
Nos. 24—27. Fragments, apparently gable ends of a tomb with 
recesses, having on them the Sphinx, represented with the face of a fe¬ 
male, the body of a lion, and the wings of a bird, as the daughter of the 
Chimsera, the indigenous monster of Lycia. Acropolis. 
Nos. 28—30. Draped torsos of three architectural figures, in diploid 
talaric tunics, one edge of which they seem to have been raising. 
No. 30 a. Fragment, apparently of a similar figure. 
No. 31. Chest, or soros, found on the top of one of the steles or 
pillar tombs. At the end, in bas-relief, is a lion fondling its cubs; 
and on one side a man standing and stabbing with a sword a lion 
standing on its hind paws; at the other side, a man mounted on 
horseback, followed by another on foot, and a hoplite holding a 
large Argolic buckler. 
No. 32. Fragment, apparently from the other end of the same or 
a similar sarcophagus ; on it a lioness fondling two cubs, one of which 
she holds in her mouth. 
No. 33. Square block, from the sides of which issue the fore parts of
