TOMBS.

The tombs of the Ephesians are situated on the
slopes of Coressus, under each extremity of the
wall, and on the northern and eastern sides of
Mount Pion and the contiguous plain. The only
one which is described to us, besides that of
Heropythus in the Agora, is that of Androclus,
the leader of the Ionian colony and first king of
Ephesus. He had gone to assist the inhabitants
of Priene against the Carians; he succeeded in
getting the victory, but fell in the engagement.
