CHAPTER XI.

TERRACOTTA, GLAZED WARE AND GLASS.

By D. G. Hogarth.

(Plates XLIII.-XLV.)

TERRACOTTA.

Objects in terracotta were rare, considering the usual abundance of this material
in temple deposits.

Figurines.

Archaic Goddess, draped ; hands lightly clasped in front below the waist-
belt. She wears a large veil
thrown back from the forehead ;
the hair or wig falls in three
plaits or tails on either side of
the face to the breasts (cp.
Olympia, iv., pi. 7, no. 58,
and Delian Artemis statue,
Collignon, Hist. Sculp. Or., i.,
p. 120, fig. 59). The eyes
protrude. The waist-belt,
in the best-preserved speci-
mens, shows traces of a fret
pattern. The feet are not indi-
cated, the figures ending in a
columnar wedge. Traces of red
and black pigment can be de-
tected on the surfaces, and pro-
bably details of the dress wen;
painted. The backs are roughly
smoothed, but not shaped.
Five specs, were found,whole or
fragmentary, made in the same
mould. II. • 1 24. (big. 34.)
One spec, of similar type.

broken at the foot, is of smaller size (11. nut above • 100), and differs slightly
in expression. If it were not that details of drapery were doubtless rendered
in pigment, it might have been supposed to be nude. (Eig. 35.)
