TRANSLATOR'S NOTE

My endeavour has been to reproduce Dr. Xanthoudides' words without the
"addition of anything of my own ; but a little expansion of my Greek text has
occasionally seemed advisable in the description of some of the objects. To
such few notes as I have added I have put my initials.

For the transliteration of modern Greek names I have adhered throughout
to the system adopted by the Committee of the British School at Athens,
except for such names as Mycenae and Phaestos, the form of which has by
usage become English.

Of the Plates, Nos. I to XV inclusive are from drawings by the skilful hand
of Mons. E. Gillieron fils.
