CATALOGUE OF SCULPTURE.

The Second Temple of Apollo.

102. The remains assigned to the second temple are of marble,
instead of limestone. They are too fragmentary for resto-
ration, but include bead and real mouldings, egg and dart
patterns, portions of palmette and lotus patterns of elabo-
rate design. Several of the fragments are brilliantly
painted with red and blue. The second temple probably
belongs to the second half of the fifth century.
