98 The Archaic Artemisia of Ephesus.
rhyton carried by the suite of Sargon at Khorsabad (P. C. ii., fig. 23). Cp. also
the type seen on early " Etruscan " earrings, e.g. Martha, pi. i. 13.
c. Stars.
iv. 31; Four bow-coils back to back, divided by bee-bodies, which form four
x* points of a star. E. In the centre a blossom of six petals ; on the back-plate,
7 staples. W. 48. (Basis.)
iv. 26. Three bow-coils, back to back, with plain cones or barley-corns between.
G. Two staples on the back. W. 19. (Basis.)
These are the first specimens noticed of a class of patterns, which
will be considered later in relation to the gold plaques.
d. Miscellanea.
iv. 30. Thin disc G., with single pin and catch behind. Flattened blossom of
four petals in the centre, and similar flattened blossoms alternating with erect
blossoms round the circumference. W. 44. (Basis.)
iii. 3; Cicada with folded wings; hollow G. ; single pin and catch. L. '016,
iv.33'. W. 15. (Basis.)
Similar insects, forming pendants, were found at Mycenae (Schliemann,
Myc. p. 176., nos. 259, 260). Our specimen is, I believe, the first actual tc'tti^
brooch found. See F. Hauser in Jahreshefte ix., p. 75 ff.
II. FlBUL/E.
a. Plain bows.
v. 6. 4 silhouettes, G., being miniature simulacra, cut out of foil. (Basis.)
b. Enriched bows.
v. 1, 2, Continuous coil ribbing. 3 specs., E. W. 19. (Basis.)
v. 4, 5. Moulded belts. 3 specs., E. W. 19 to 18. (Basis and W. Area.)
v. 3. Granular belts ; G. E. ; W. 19. (Basis.)
vi. 70. A straight bar (L. "037) with same ornament as v. 3 ; catch-hook at one
end, 'and spiral beginning of pin at the other. E. (Basis.) This unusual
fragment must belong to a very flat fibula-bow, somewhat resembling certain
bronze types found at Enkomi (p. 16, fig. 27), and gold types found at
Mycenae in graves of the Lower Town. {Eph. Arch., 1888, pi. 9, nos. 1 and 2.)
The other enriched fibulae, described above, are all of one general type, that
called klcinasiatisch by Furtwangler, in Aphaia, p. 403 ; and discussion of them
will be reserved till the larger number of bronze specimens come to be dealt with.
