RESTORATION OF THE MAUSOLEUM. 1G9

Above the fascia of the upper architrave stone is
a ledge, 4" on the bed and 5" In height (fig. 5), into
which a bold egg~and tongue moulding was found
to fit.

The three fascias of the architrave slope outwards
as in the temple of Athene Polias at Priene, in-
clining -020 in the foot.

Of the transverse beam between the architrave
and cello, only one piece was discovered; it measured
4' 6" in length (Plate XXVII. figg. 1, 2, 3, 4). One
half of the length has two .fascias on either side,
measuring, respectively, in depth 7f"and 6|", and, on
the soffit, a sunk panel; above the fascia were ledges
for mouldings; an egg and tongue moulding was
found which fitted these ledges. The other half
of the stone was roughly tooled all round, showing
that it had been inserted into the wall of the cella;
for the length of this rough work was too great for
the end that was placed over the columns.

The fascias incline outwards like those of the
main architrave.

This stone is 2' 1" in width by 1' 6" in height; and,
as it fits exactly the square recess left between the
two upper stones of the architrave, its position is
indisputably proved. On the upper surface,-, which
is roughly tooled, are cramp-holes, at distances of
about one foot apart (fig. 4), showing where the
stones forming the lacunaria had been attached to
the transverse beam on which they rested. . These
stones will be noticed after the upper .part of the
entablature has been described.

It has been already stated {ante, p. 79) that a
