ii. 897 n. 5. Mr C. W. Blegen has kindly furnished me (Aug. 16, 1924) with the
following note :—'Trial excavations conducted by the American School in 1923 and 1924
brought to light near the summit of Mt. Hymettus a large deposit of ancient pottery. It
seems to have been deliberately placed in a great heap and carefully covered with earth
and ashes, and is probably, therefore, formed of votive offerings discarded from a small
shrine or altar. These vases, of many different shapes and sizes, date almost exclusively
from the Geometric Period; and some of them bear incised inscriptions. The material is
sadly fragmentary, only one inscription being sufficiently preserved to give an idea of its
content. It is of a coarsely vituperative nature, recalling the archaic inscriptions of Thera,
and unfortunately gives no clue to the character of the shrine. A slight scattering of
sherds of classical pottery and a few fragments of Roman lamps were also found.
The small mountain sanctuary which once occupied this lofty position accordingly
appears to have nourished chiefly during the Geometric Age, though it continued to be
visited in a small way till Roman times.
Since no trace of a building has yet been discovered, it is possible that the cult
possessed merely an open altar.
Until further evidence is forthcoming there can be no certainty in identifying definitely
this cult; but it is tempting to conjecture that we have here the site of the worship of
Zeus Ombrios, which, according to Pausanias, was somewhere on Mt. Hymettus.'

hours south-east of Almyro, near Paralia, are the insignificant ruins of a large building of
the classical period, within a rectangular temenos. It seems to me that these can only be
the remains of a temple belonging to the neighbouring city of Halos. Mr. [N. I.]
Giannopoulos' view that this is the sanctuary of Zeus Laphystios may perhaps be correct,
though no proof can at present be adduced. In the small trial excavation which I made
here, a few fragments of black-glazed pottery were found, but nothing of the prehistoric
age.'
