126. (Fig. 53.) Torso of female figure of coarse clay, round-bodied type.
der is an elaborate fibula of the " clover-leaf " type, and the left shoulder
shows traces of a similar fibula. At the back are traces of strands of
hair, and also of an applied band which was stretched from shoulder to
shoulder. The ground color is red, covered by a black coat, with
applied yellow lines at waist and neck, and yellow dots on fibula.
Height, 6 cm. Clay, yellow.
127. Similar torso, forearms (which were extended) broken off.
Traces of four strands of hair at back, and of one strand in front of
each shoulder. Fold of chiton represented plastically and decorated
with "laufender Hund*' pattern in light brown. The entire body is covered with a light brown
coat, to which is applied dark brown on bust and arms. Dark brown stripe at waist. Height,
5.5 cm. Yellow clay.
128. Third torso of similar style, arms broken. Fold of chiton moulded in the clay, both at
front and back. Traces of long necklace from shoulder to shoulder behind. Hair was six notched
strands. Fragment of large fibula on left shoulder. Ground color red, changing to black (appar-
ently from burning). Applied white on neck and fibula: white line at waist. Height, 5 cm.
Dark yellow clay.
129. Fragment of heavy, seated figure of coarse clay (similar to the clay of Nos. 126-128),
broken at neck and below knees. The woman leans forward and rests her elbows on her knees.
The forearms are broken off. Color, black, with red lines at upper edge of chiton and at waist.
Traces of large fibula at left shoulder. Height, 8.5 cm. Yellow clay.
Here, too, we may place, as a transitional type —
130. (Plate XLVII. 3.) Bust and head of rudely made figure of archaic style, with a mod-
eled head. Tliis figure presents striking analogies to the advanced Argive figures; it has a low
stephane, six large curls, large earrings, and a close-fitting necklace. Yet it is a real archaic
figure; the body was of the same type as Nos. 126-129. Paint applied directly: pupils of eyes,
hair, and body, black ; brows, brown. Height, 6.5 cm. Yellow clay.
131. Fragments of four replicas of No. 130, with varying amounts of plastic ornament. Three
have necklaces, the fourth is broken close to the neck. One has marks of a long necklace from
shoulder to shoulder at the back. Two have applied earrings, while of the others, one has the ear-
rings represented by circles sunk in the clay, the other has none at all. The hair consists in
three cases of curls; in the other it is a mass. All show marks of having had a stephane. The
system of color is the same in all — body, solid color, in one case black, shading to red ; in the
others, black; necklace, a row of dots; pupils of eyes, brows, and hair, same color as the body —
in one case red, in the others, black. One figure has a black dot in the centre of each earring.
Height, 3.5 cm. to 6.5 cm. Clay, yellow, except one figure, which is of gi'ay clay.
GROUP B: MOULD-MADE FIGURES.
132. (Fig. 54.) Fragment of standing female figure, broken at neck and
waist, arms missing. The modeling is careless. The fig-
ure is interesting only because it has at the shoulders round
pins similar to those of the early and advanced Argive
styles (cf. p. 8). General traces of white. Height, 4 cm.
Clay, red.
133. Fragment of similar figure, without pins. The lower
body is no more than a squared lump of clay ; the arms
are stumps. Fold of chiton represented by a slight groove.
Traces of white. Height, 7.5 cm. Reddish yellow clay.
134. (Fig. 55.) Moulded female figure, broken at neck and above knees.
She wears a sleeveless chiton — the upper edge plainly marked by a depres-
