CATALOGUE OF SCULPTURE.

339. half of the sole is roughly cut with a drill as if this part
of the font had been slightly raised from the ground.
The heel and part of the sole under the instep have been
broken away. The scale is rather larger than that of
the preceding Nos. 9, 10, and it may therefore be one of
the feet of the Athene in the west pediment.

Length of fragment, 11^ inches. Michaelis, pi. 8, fig. 31 ; Laborde,
pi. 58, fig. 8.

12. Fragment of tail of some serpentine creature having
on the back a ridge of projections. This fragment has
been thought to be part of the tail of a Hippocamp
attached to the chariot of Amphitiite.

Length, 1 foot 6 inches. Michaelis, pi. 8, fig. 17 ; Laborde, pi. 24,
fig. 9.

13. Fragment of left thigh, near the knee, of colossal figure ;
on it falls a corner of drapery to which is attached a
gland. Sauer proposes to assign this fragment to the
figure S of the west pediment.

Length, 9.4 inches. Athvnische Mittheilungen, 1891, p. 79.

14. Eight thigh and knee of a male figure, rather larger
than life. It is very doubtful whether this belongs to

Length, 10 inches.

15. Fragment of right leg of small figure, broken off above
ankle and below knee. It has been attached at the back.

Length, 11 inches.

16. Left hand of colossal female figure clasped ruund an un-
certain object. The hand is broken off at the wrist ; the
forefinger and middle finger are wanting. There is no
evidence that this hand belongs to the Parthenon. The
scale, however, is suitable to one of the central figures of
