peribolus, given by Texier (Asie JVIineure, III., PL 162),
and the views of the site in its present state, ibid. PL 1G3 ;
also his description of these Plates, ibid. p. 176. He states that
the uppermost hexagon of each pillar had four sockets for the
reception of the legs of a bronze tripod. (See his plan of one of
these hexagons, PL 101, fig. 3.) M. Texier'a supposition that
the iwribolus was a Hieron where the members of the Doric
Pentapolis met, was not confirmed by our excavations. There is
nothing to show that the inclosure is of a very early period.
