shown above the left knee of the fallen figure : his right
arm must have heen raised above the level of the shoulder :
the opposite combatant, whose back is turned to the spec-
tator, advances his left leg and with his right hand hurls
a rock, while his left hand appears above his antagonist's
shoulder : the left arm and shoulder of this figure, the
back of his head, the back of his right upper arm, his
right leg, and his left leg and thigh are wanting : the
fallen figure lies on rocky ground between the combatants :
his head is sunk below the level of his body; his right
arm, now wanting, has been resting on a lower level, his
left arm is folded helplessly across his body, his right knee
is bent; the head, the inside of the left thigh, and surface
of the left arm and hand of this figure are much injured.
(B. 9.) Two warriors moving to the right. The warrior
in front wears a chiton fastened on the left shoulder
which leaves the right side bare ; on his left arm is an
Argolic buckler; both legs are wanting from above the
knee, and the right arm from below the shoulder ; he
advances so close to the seated group in front of him that
the edge of his buckler passes behind the right elbow of
the figure seated immediately before him. As his right
arm is wanting it cannot be decided whether this warrior
advances with a hostile intention. The warrior who
follows is naked; his right arm from the shoulder, and his
right leg and thigh are wanting; on his left arm is a
shield held in the hand by the smaller strap, porpax, and
also supported by a broad strap, ochanon, at the elbow ; his
left leg is advanced.
(B. 10.) Group of one female and two male deities ; the
female figure occupies the centre of the group and is
seated on a rock, her head slightly inclined forward and
looking to the left, in which direction her body is turned;
she wears a talaric chiton and a mantle wound round her
lower limbs; her right arm and hand rest on her lap; the
