^{page 359 note 1} The top of the existing basis is set back about · 18 m. from the outside of the base course. The top of the restored plinth would be set back about ·25 m., so that the total width of the top of the back would only be about 7·90 m.

^{page 365 note 2} ὐπὸ τῶν ἀγαλμάτων —this might also mean on the cross-bars of the throne, as in the case of the Zeus at Olympia; but the figures would hardly be visible in this position.

^{page 370 note 1} Eighteen of these holes now exist, but when the head was intact there were probably twenty one. They are ·035 m. to ·05 m. apart, and the bronze spikes vary from ·003 m. to ·008 m. in diameter.

^{page 371 note 1} Cf the many scenes on the late Italian vases shewing Demeter and Koré enthroned.

^{page 377 note 1} Hitzig, and Blümner, , Pausanias, vol. iii. p. 252 Google Scholar, in a note on viii. 37. 4, suggest a possibility that the hand holding thesnakes belongs to Despoina, while Artemis held not snakes but darts, ἄκοντας δύο instead of δράκοντας δύο In answer to this we may explain (1) that Despoina's right hand holding the cista is perfect enough to shew that she held nothing more; (2) that the fragment found, and probably holding snakes, is shewn by its scale to belong to Artemis; (3)that tlowel-holes on the arm shew that the object or objects held in Artemis' left hand curled round her lower arm.

^{page 382 note 1} E.g. the cuirass of Alexander on the equestrian bronze in Naples. A good example of a similar cuirass is to be found in a warrior's torso from Pergamon, (Ath. Mitt, xxvii. 1902, pp. 152, 153).Google Scholar For this reference I am indebted to Mr. A. J. B. Wace. A thin slab exists at Lycosura shewing parts of two horses in relief. This may be part of an embossed pattern on the cuirass, and is represented in that position in the restoration, It is too small to restore the subject with certainty.

^{page 383 note 1} It must, however, be admitted that no place has been allotted to two cornice pieces. There is no room for these pieces on the throne, but they might conceivably serve as supports to the footstool. There is a square dowel-hole existing on their upper surface set diagonally to their long axis.

^{page 383 note 2} Hitzig and Blümner, op. cit. p. 253, suggest that we should read ὐπὲρ τῶν ἀγαλμάτων i.e. on the top of the throne, since Pausanias separates the Kouretes from the Korybantes on the basis; but the top of the throne was covered with drapery save the two corners, and they do not consider the possibilities of the footstool.
