166. Kneeling Trojan, with right hand raised to hurl spear.

Restored:—Head, right armpit and shoulder-blade, three fingers of
right hand ; left arm from middle of biceps ; right leg from the
knee ; left knee with part of thigh, and part of left foot.
Cockerell, pi. 15, No. 6; pi. 16 ; Blouet, III., pi. 65, fig. 2.

167. Warrior advancing with shield extended, and right
hand raised to hurl spear, closely corresponding to
No. 163. Perhaps Aeneas.

Restored :—Head (which should probably be bearded), right armpit
and breast, fingers, parts of shield and legs. Cockerel], pi. 15,
No. 4; pi. 16 ; Blouet, III., pi. 66, fig. 2.

168. Archer kneeling and drawing his bow. He wears a
Phrygian cap, which has holes in the front for a metal
wreath. (Compare the wreath on the Ephesian fragment
No. 46, 12); also closely-fitting breeches and coat of
leather. This figure, which is always known as Paris,
closely corresponds with the ' Teucer,' No. 162.

Restored:—Tips of cap, nose and chin ; some fingers, and the fore-
part of the left foot. Cockerell, pi. 15, No. 7; pi. 16; Blouet,
III., pi. 68, fig. 2 ; Brunn, Dcnkmaelcr, No. 24.

169. Wounded Trojan, leaning on the right arm. An arrow-
may have been fixed in the left knee between the thumb
and forefinger.

Restored:—Head, left arm, part of right forearm and hand; both
legs from the knees. Cockerell, pi. 15, No. 8; pi. 16 ; Blouet,
III., pi. 65, fig. 1.

170. The pediment is surmounted by an acroterion, consist-
ing of a palmette between two large volutes, which are
for the most part restorations. (Cockerell, pis. 1, 4.)

On each side of the acroterion is an architectonic
female figure, treated in the same designedly archaic
style as the figure of Athene.
