(p. 126). The dress occurs not infrequently on the Column of Trajan
(e. g. Cichorius, ZE? AT/zb/s- Zz'q/hzzyZzzA, pi. XXII), and is also found
on the Column of Marcus Aurelius. It is probable that the present work
was the keystone of an arch in the Forum of Trajan.

6 a. RELIEF OF A TROPHY (pi. 8).
II. -66 m., L. .90 m. Parian marble. Restored : the upper moulding.
Rectangular panel, bordered by an egg-and-dart moulding. Within
is an elaborate trophy of arms and armour. In the centre are remains
of a Parthian helmet. On the r. is a cuirass with overlapping scales and
a mantle on the shoulder, on the 1. a jerkin. Below are five hexagonal
shields (with rayed bosses in the centre), one of which is ornamented with
hybrid sea-monsters, another with dolphins, and the remainder with floral
decoration. The other prominent objects are a bow and quiver with
cover and strap, a spear, arrows, and a sword—hilt now broken—in its
scabbard.

6 b. RELIEF OF A TROPHY (pi. 8).
II. *66 m., L. .88 m. Parian marble. Restored: part of moulding above on r.
Rectangular panel with moulding similar to no. 6 a. Within is an
elaborate trophy of arms and armour. There are two cuirasses, one with
overlapping scales, the other with shoulder-straps, sash, and tendril orna-
ment. There are also four oval shields with high bosses; three are
ornamented with tendrils, one with a pattern of net-work. The other
prominent objects are three helmets, all much damaged, a bow and quiver,
an axe, and a sword—the hilt is broken—in its scabbard.

7. STATUE OF BARBARIAN CHIEF (pi. 6).
Statue of barbarian chief, similar in dress and pose to no. 3, except
that he is turned half 1., that his mantle is not fringed, and that his arms are
cut short at the elbow. The hair, moustache, and beard are arranged in
straggling locks instead of curls, and the hair is parted over the forehead.
The type is more savage than the other.
