456 CATALOGUE OF SCULPTURE.

2733 (= 324-327). The Frieze of the Parthenon.

East Side.—Slab vi. A fragment with the foot of
the seated figure, No. 39, and some of the missing portion
of her drapery, has lately been found in the Museum at
Palermo (Roemische Mittheilungen, 1893, p. 76). A cast
has been presented by Prof. Salinas on behalf of the
Palermo Museum and was added in 1903. The portions
previously wanting in the figures 43, 44 and 46 were
added, in 1902, from the Paris mould. The casts were
presented by the Museum of the Louvre.

North Side.—A readjustment of the spaces between
the slabs was made in 1902, and several fragments, pre-
viously omitted, were inserted in their places. At the
same time the fragmentary slabs xv. and xxv. were placed
beneath the principal series.

In slab is. the fragment 345, 8, has been placed in
position.

After slab xm., the fragments 345, 9 and 11, have
been conjecturally placed.

The arm, however, which crosses the latter fragment
appears to be the right arm of the warrior grasping the
front of the chariot. (See Carrey's drawing.)

Next to slab xix. the fragment 345, 12, has been
conjecturally added as in vol. i., p. 172, fig. 12.

Slab xxii. has been divided through the cast portion,
to facilitate the arrangement.

Slab xxxiv. The cast of a small fragment formerly
inserted by error at the angle of this slab has been
correctly placed in slab ix. of the West Side. The true
fragment was recognised in the Museum in 1902 and
placed in position. It had been shown by Pars as extant
(Stuart, iv., chap, iv., pi. 9).

Slab, xxxvi. The left-hand upper corner of the slab
was discovered, in private possession in England, in 1902
