Hoffmann, Die Griech. Dialekte, L, No. 15. Col. Leake con-
jectured that the term was brought from the temenos of
Demeter, which Pausanias (VIII., 10, 1) mentions as existing
here.

2142. (Fig. 25.) Trophy. It is composed of a helmet with
cheek-pieces, a how, a pair of greaves, and a shield.
These arms are attached to the
trunk of a tree.—From the plain of
Marathon. Presented by John Walker,
Esq., 1802.

Marble. Height, 2 feet 9 inches. Ellis,
Town. Gall., EL, p. 307; Grceco-
Romun Guide, II., No. 18.

2143. Grotesque figure cut out of lime-
stone rock, with a rudely-sculptured
face. The figure apparently wears
a necklace with bullae. The right
hand and arm (which wear.s a sleeve)
are pressed against the right side.—
From Tachtali Dagh, near Smyrna.

Limestone. Height, 3 feet 6 inches. Rev.
Arch., 1876 (N. S., XXXI.), p. 325.
This figure was cut in the living
rock so as to form an Atlant below
the mouth of a cave, partly artificial.
Cf. Spiegelthal, in Rev. Arch., loc. tit., p. 326, and a photograph
in the Department of Greek and llomaa Antiqs. Perrot {Rev.
Arch., I. c, p. 327) rightly regards the sculpture as rude rather
than early.
