TEMPLE OF HEKATE AT L AGIN A. 561
tliat they are deities; most of the scenes seem to
represent assemhlies of the gods in Olympus.
The subjects may be thus described, commencing
with those of which photographs have been taken.
I. Two groups, each composed of one seated
and two standing figures.
On the left is a female figure seated on rocks,
turned to the right, the lower half of the body
clothed.
She looks up towards a female figure standing on
the right, who turns to the right, and holds some-
thing, perhaps a cornucopia, in her left arm. On
the extreme left, behind the seated figure, are two
female figures standing.
These three last figures wear talaric chitons and
pepli.
On the rio'ht is a female figure turned to the
right, looking towards, a seated male figure on
the extreme right, who is turned towards her. His
left hand is placed on some object which appears
like a rock with drapery thrown over it. His right
foot rests on a footstool, or a small rock; a veil
hangs from his head. A peplos is thrown over his
lower limbs. The female figure in front of him
wears a talaric chiton and. peplos; in her left hand
she holds some object. This slab belongs to an
angle, the return being on the left.
On this face is a group of two female figures : the
one on the left is seated ; the other stands on the
right, holding her right hand over the seated figure.
Both these figures wear the talaric chiton and.pej)los.
I was unable to examine them closely, from the
tliat they are deities; most of the scenes seem to
represent assemhlies of the gods in Olympus.
