INVESTIGATIONS AT ASSOS, 1881. 89
arity was evident from the weathered marks of the lower
drums upon the stylobate, as well as from the termination of
the channelling upon the necking of the displaced capitals.
It is evident that with their eighteen channels the shafts of
the pronaos presented a hollow in the line of their lateral axes
better fitted to receive the transverse bars of the grille, cus-
tomarily employed as a barrier between pteroma and pronaos,
than the sharp edge of an arris. Still, it should be remarked
that upon the single drum of eighteen channels which was
found during the excavations, no traces of such a metallic
barrier were to be detected.
Plate 10.
From the lower surfaces of the capitals it appears that the
juncture between them and the upper drum of the shaft
formed an incision. The channellings, as is shown in the
outline of the necking and echinos, Plate 10, were terminated
