78 Iupiter-Columns

Fig. 39. Fig. 40.
Provinzialmuseums zu Trier Trier 1893 p. 29 ff. no. 40 (plinth of red sandstone, height
0-84™, breadth of side here shown o-36m: Iupiter with wreath and chlamys, holding
sceptre (?) in right hand, six-spoked wheel in left; a small bird beside his right foot).
F. Hertlein of. cit. p. 109 n. 3 prefers to call this deity Mars (the head is beardless, the
alleged wreath a ' Lockenkranz,' the chlamys a sagum).
1 Group in stone (original height not more than o-5om) from Meaux (Seine-et-Marne)
presumably found with a fragment of scale-patterned column (G. Gassies ' Cavalier et
anguipede sur un monument de Meaux' in the Revue des etudes anciennes 1902 iv.
287—297 with figs. 1—3, of which fig. 1 f. =my fig. 38, Reinach Rip. Stat. iii. 270 no. 2,
F. Hertlein op. cit. pp. 27, 29, 33, 34, 43, 60, Esperandieu Bas-reliefs de la Gaule Rom.
iv. 258 f. no. 3207 with photographic cuts). The rider, whose head and right arm are
missing, wears a wide tunic, a fluttering cloak, and hose : he passes his left hand through
a rosette-like wheel to hold the reins. The horse has neither saddle nor saddle-cloth.
The reclining figure is beardless, but male.
2 Group from a column (c. 4'50m high) found at Butterstadt near Hanau and now in the
Museum des Geschichtsvereins at Hanau (W. Kiister in the Westdeutsche Zeitschrift 1901
xx. 32jf. with fig. = my fig. 39, G. Gassies in the Revue des etudes anciennes 1902 iv. 290 fig. 3,
Reinach Re'p. Stat. iii. 151 no. 7, F. Hertlein op. cit pp. 5 f., 30 n. r, 33, 34, 39 f., 43, 60).
The rider, a Iupiter in type, wears tunica and paludamenlum : his right arm was drawn-
back and raised; his left passes through a four-spoked wheel to hold the reins. The
second figure, beardless but male, lies on his back and turns his face towards the left side
of the rider : his right hand is pressed against the ground ; his left probably held the right
hoof of the horse on his left shoulder, the left hoof of the horse resting on his right
shoulder.
