345. 5. Fragment containing the back of the head of one of the
lyre-players (Miehaelis, No. 24) and part of the lyre of
the other (Miehaelis, No. 25).

Height, 11§ inches. (See fig. 12). Miehaelis, pi. 12, vii.

6. Fragment from lower pavt of draped figure from knee
to right (?) foot, the direction being to the left. On the
right side of the fragment is a joint. The drapery
reaches to the ankle, with an upper fold falling half-way
down the calf. This fragment seems to have belonged
to the musician on slab vii., whose lyre is preserved on
the preceding fragment, and is thus drawn in fig. 12.
Miehaelis is in error in marking a joint on the left of
his No. 26 (= Museum, No. 17).

Height, 1 foot 7J inches.

7. Fragment with left foot wearing a shoe, from a draped
figure moving to the left. The skirt falls just above the
ankle. This may be a part of the figure on slab i., only
preserved in Carrey's drawing (of. fig. 11); or it may
have belonged to one of the figures on slabs vii.—ix., not-
withstanding that Carrey represents them with bare feet.

Height, 7 inches.

8. Fragment from the left of slab ix., giving parts of the
three figures shown in Carrey's drawing (see fig. 12).
This fragment agrees fairly well with Carrey, except
that he does not indicate the hand of the middle figure.
It was discovered in the excavations on the Acropolis in
1889.

Height, 2 feet. Journ. of Hellen. Studies, xiii., p. 96.

9. Fragment from the right joint of a slab, containing
part of a male figure from the hip to the right shoulder.
The right arm was held horizontally, and bent at the
elbow, so that the hand is seen before the breast. A
