Sect. I.—THE FIND-SPOTS.
Eighty-seven early electrum coins1 were discovered by Mr. Hogarth in the
course of his excavations on the site of the Artemision at Ephesus, all of which
have been submitted to me to classify, and to describe independently of the exact
find-spots of the individual specimens comprised in the successive finds within
the area of Mr. Hogarth's excavations.
I am able, however, before classifying the coins according to their types
and several denominations, to place on record the following information
communicated to me by Mr. Hogarth.
During his first season's work only 18 specimens were discovered. They
were extracted from between the evenly-laid slabs of the small rectangular
basis, which appears to have been the centre of the earliest temple or shrine,
and to these 18 must be added two more, a 'Third' (No. 33) and a 'Twenty-
fourth ' (No. 54 ?), found in the second season in the same place. These 20
coins are marked (a) in my descriptive list.2
In the course of his second season's work 19 more specimens were emptied
by Mr. Hogarth himself out of a small pot or jar found buried in rammed earth
between the western basis (see p. 43), which is of ' A ' period, and the
girdle-wall of the '£' central platform, and at a very low level (on the bottom

two more electrum coins at least were found, but concealed and sold by workmen.- D.G.H.]
■ Four small coins have to be added (see Addendum, p. 93), making 24 in all.
