CASTS PROM FRAGMENTS OF THE FRIEZE.
(Wall-Cases G, H.)
North Frieze.—1. Upper corner from right side of a
slab; male head, to the left, on which are traces of a
diadem. At the back of the head the upper part of a
lyre and the fingers of a left hand. The head belongs ap-
parently to the foremost Kitharist in the North frieze
(Michaelis, pi. 12, vii. 24). The place of this fragment
would thus be between Nos. 16 and 17. On the right side
is a joint not known to Michaelis.
2. Part of a charioteer standing in a chariot of which
part of the antyx appears ; it is moving to the left. The
upper part of this figure from above the waist and the
lower part from the knees downwards are wanting. The
left forearm crosses the body as if holding the reins.
This fragment, which is not noticed by Michaelis, must
belong to the North frieze. Professor Eobert (Arch. Zeit.
1875, p. 100, n) proposes to assign it to a slab of the North
frieze as drawn by Carrey (Michaelis, pi. 12, xiii., fig. 49).
3. Fragment of chariot group; an apobates standing in
a quadriga, leaning forward. The head and neck, right
arm from below elbow and legs from below the knee are
wanting. On his left arm is his oval buckler of which
the convex side is turned to the spectator. He wears a
chiton which leaves the right arm and side bare, and of
which the attachment to the left shoulder is concealed by
the shield. His right hand must have grasped the antyx.
On the left of this figure drapery is shown alongside of
his right arm, but this probably belongs to the charioteer,
who must have been sculptured on the next slab, as there
PART I. H
