preceding fragment (No. 7), though the fractured edges
cannot be adjusted.

9. A colossal right foot, broken off at the ankle, and also
half-way between the instep and the toes. Less than half
of the sole is roughly cut with a drill as if this part of the
foot had been raised. The heel and part of the sole under
the instep have been broken away. The scale is rather
larger than that of the preceding Nos. 6-8, and it may
therefore be one of the feet of the Athene in the West
pediment.

10. Eight knee of colossal figure, bent, with a small
portion of the thigh, on which is the edge of a piece of
drapery. The action of this knee corresponds with that
of the right knee of the female figure N in the West
pediment.

11. Fragment of tail of some serpentine creature having
on the back a ridge of projections. This fragment is
supposed to be part of the tail of a Hippocamp. (Michaelis,
pi. 8, fig. 17 ; Laborde, Parthenon, pi. 24, fig. 4.)

12. Fragment of fold of drapery attached to portion of
plinth; behind the fold an eye and part of a head,
apparently, of a dolphin.

13. Right thigh of colossal male figure, broken off above
the knee and below the hip ; possibly the right thigh of
Hermes (H) in the West pediment.

14. Eight knee and beginning of calf of male figure,
slightly bent. This may be the knee of the Hermes (H)
in the West pediment.

15. Fragment of left (?) thigh near the knee, of colossal
gure ; on it falls a corner of drapery, to which is attached

a gland.

16. Left leg of colossal female figure; from above the
knee to near the ankle, draped; the leg has been slightly
bent. The scale corresponds with that of the figure C in
the West pediment.
