NOTE.
Fuktheb exploration at Naukratis with Mr. Ernest Gardner
and Mr. Griffith since this volume was written, obliges
me to add a note. It is found that the area which I had
supposed to be possibly the Palaistra is—in part at least—•
the Heraion, also that some remains of the temple of the
Dioskouroi existed in their temenos; that some of the
street lines at the S.W. of the town should be slightly
altered around the massive building of which the E. side
had not been found when making the plan here given, and
that that building is the temple of Aphrodite; that far
greater quantities of the Naukratite pottery were obtainable
there, quite eclipsing the plate of specimens here illustrated;
also that an approach to the Great Temenos existed on the
canal side, where we found portions of marble rams, and
a large sphinx in red granite. Further examples of com-
binations of mud, brick, and stonework, which I have
examined elsewhere, indicate that it is at least possible
that the building in the gateway of the Great Temenos lay
wholly within the thin brick wall there; that wall perhaps
being only a retaining wall to the foundation.
