Plate CVIII

696. Calcareous stone. Height, 3 feet 8£ inches. From the ruins near Pala;o

Castro.

Female figure, wanting the head, feet, and right forearm; the left forearm
broken off below the elbow. She wears a chiton, with sleeves of a thin material,
which is represented as lying in close, small folds. The chiton is concealed below the
waist, and nearly to the feet, by a mantle of thick material covering the left side,
and carried round the right elbow, across the body, and over the left forearm. The
lower folds on the left side are mainly broken away. The folds are likewise broken
off along the edge on the right side. In the crook of the left elbow, and held in
the mantle, are three apples. Three long tresses fall on either shoulder. The surface is
broken and mutilated in various places. When found this statue was broken straight
across the waist, just below the band, and has been rejoined. Style, archaistic.
