Chian and Early Ionic architecture
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 29 November 2011
Extract
In the first part of this article are listed the architectural fragments found at or near the site of the temple of Apollo Phanaios in South Chios, including several hitherto unpublished mouldings. The discussion of them is prompted by the excavations conducted by the British School at Athens from 1952 to 1955 at Emporio, some 8 km. from Phanai, and the discovery there of parts of more than one early Ionic building. The similarity of the Emporio mouldings to those from Phanai led to a study of the latter. They have so far been neglected by most writers, but since they afford evidence of some important local fashions it seems of value to record them fully, both for their own sakes and for the light they throw on the Emporio buildings. The full publication of these must await that of the rest of the site. To the Phanai pieces are added a number of other early mouldings from Chios, other than those found at Emporio.

page 179 note 2 Larisa am Hermos, i. pls. 41, 8–12; 25 f, h; there seem no good grounds for attributing these mouldings to the earliest palace of the mid-sixth century or earlier. For the cavetto as a base moulding see above, p. 177, n. 7. Compare also the classical altar of the Artemision at Kyrene (Africa Italiana, iv, 225, fig. 43) which both Yavis (Greek Altars, p. 121 ) and Hoffmann (A.J.A. lvii (1953), 195) regard as archaic.
page 179 note 3 Shoe, p. 55, pl. XXV, 12. On its date see below, p. 207. The moulding is quite common on statue bases from about 500 B.C.; cf.

It is interesting to note its occurrence at Sinjirli above a cushion base (Siniirli, ii, 198, fig. 90, 1; Naumann, R., Architektur Kleinasiens, pp. 130 f.Google Scholar, figs. 125, 128.)
page 183 note 5 The proportions between the total height of the base and the column diameter remain fairly constant and have no real chronological significance, pace Amandry, , op. cit., pp. 95 f.Google Scholar
page 183 note 6 Discs nos. 35 and 36 are 1–10 and 0–87 in diameter respectively. In the second dipteron at Samos column-base diameters range from 2–29 to 1–87; at Ephesos from 1–725to 1–51 (see Dinsmoor, pp. 130, 339), and inner columns would have smaller bases still.
page 184 note 1 A small base for a column supporting a votive basin seems to be of the same period but has the relevant proportions of 1:2½ and 1:3½ see Buschor, E., A.M. lv (1930)Google Scholar, Beil. II, 2.
page 184 note 2 The drawing in Naukratis, i, pl. 3 is derived from a ‘good photograph’ (ibid., p. 13) so the proportions may be slightly misleading. The diameter of the fragment in the British Museum (B.M. Cat. Sculpture, i. 1, 172, B 391; Shoe, pl. LXXII, 1) is approximately 0.60, its height 0.11.
page 184 note 3 Shoe, pls. LXV, 6 and LXXI, 26. Shallow flutes, and a disc near those of the second dipteron, but with an unusual splaying profile.
page 184 note 4 Humann, C. and others, Magnesia am Maeander, p. 49Google Scholar, fig. 33. Dinsmoor (p. 136) dates the archaic temple in the fifth century. The disc proportions bear this out or could suggest an even earlier date. The material was limestone; the shaft flutes were of the developed Ionic type divided by flat fillets, and may be some of the earliest examples of it. All certainly sixth-century Ionic shafts have sharp arrises to their flutes (as Doric) when they are fluted at all, except for some poros fragments attributed to the second dipteron on Samos (Wiegand, T., I. Bericht, p. 16Google Scholar; Reuther, , op. cit., pp. 47 f.Google Scholar, Drawing Z 32).

The correspondence in itself does not mean therefore that the absolute dates proposed are trustworthy, but implies that the monument's place in the apparent development of architecture and sculpture is reasonably certain.

If the Persians did interfere conceptions of an uninterrupted Samian tyranny might need revision (White, M., J.H.S. lxxiv (1954), 36 ff.).Google Scholar Herodotos' silence about any Persian attack in the 540s cannot be lightly ignored, but does not damn the theory that there was one.

M. in J.H.S. lvii (1937), 227 ff.Google Scholar; Gjerstad's answer to one point, in Swedish Cyprus Expedition, iv. 2, 321, n. 8, is rather weakened by his misquoting the number and therefore the date of the Rhitsona tomb with a Chian chalice in it.

The tongue-like leaves restored on its echinus are strange; it is not clear whether there is evidence for their continuation right up to the cushion as they appear in the restored drawing. A plain member above shorter eggs would look happier and could be paralleled in the islands and Athens. If the tongues are correct the closest parallels appear in the west, on capitals at Gela (Durm, J., op. cit., p. 302Google Scholar, fig. 279, 7; Walters, H. B., B.M. Cat. Terracottas, p. 164Google Scholar, fig. 40; Monumenti Antichi, xvii (1906), 737, fig. 558; and a sandstone capital recently excavated, A.A. 1954, pp. 647 f., fig. 102 and 657; Griffo, P., Atti Acc.

It appears on two Samian capitals (see above, p. 201, nn. 2, 3) and one Chian (above, no.52, pl. XXVIII b). The reason for it was no doubt economy; the volutes may have been painted.

page 213 note 1 Cf. Frankfort, H., The Art and Architecture of the Ancient Orient, p. 210Google Scholar: ‘In the seventh century B.C. Greece was no longer avid for foreign goods; the oriental themes which had been borrowed in an earlier age had now been transformed into truly Greek designs.’
page 213 note 2 Thus, palm-leaves between volutes on an ivory fly-whisk from Nimrud may, in a way, anticipate the Corinthian capitals of some 300 years later (Barnett, R. D., Catalogue of the Nimrud Ivories, p. 110)Google Scholar, but there can be no causal relationship between what was an isolated motif in North Syria in the eighth century, and an architectural member whose origins within the development of Greek decorative design are clear. If bell capitals with volutes and acanthus were attested in the Near East in the early fifth century it would be a different matter.
page 213 note 3 An apt illustration of the sort of problem involved is given by Barnett's comparison between the two-bodied, one-headed lion on a vase from Afrati in Crete and a rather similar creature on a gold plaque from the Ziwiye treasure (in The Aegean and the Near East, p. 232, pl. 21, 2–3; cf. also Frankfort, H., Cylinder Seals, p. 312).Google Scholar The Cretan monster is on a black-figured vase. Black-figure was learnt in Crete from Protocorinthian vases about the middle of the seventh century (Payne, H., Necrocorinthia, p. 51).Google Scholar A date for the vase earlier than the second half of the seventh century is not admissible on stylistic grounds. With the technique the Cretans copied also the repertoire of animals and monsters; so the artist of the vase in question may simply be reproducing what, on vases or other objects, was already familiar to him in Greek art. No immediate borrowing from the east need necessarily be deduced. What is to be sought is the immediate source for these monsters when they first appear in archaic Greek art of the seventh century. Various sources are possible, but I doubt whether the Assyro-Scythian art of the Ziwiye treasure (which on Barnett's own dating might be later than the Cretan vase; Iraq, xviii (1956), 116) need be one of them, despite the few Luristan-like objects found in Greece. But are we obliged to look to the east at all? ‘Not through eastern windows only ….’ The monster was already at home in Greece in the Late Bronze Age (e.g. Palace of Minos, iv, 585 f., figs. 575–7), and in view of the many certain revivals of Mycenaean forms and motifs in archaic Greece the possibility that this is to be added to them cannot be entirely ruled out. Finally we must dispel the suspicion that any artist who habitually draws heraldically opposed animals may be moved to economize in their heads of his own accord (cf. Deonna, W., Rev. Arch, xxxi (1930), 28 ff.).Google Scholar
This is a minor point picked out of an article full of important and significant speculation, but only from a detailed appraisal of the way in which oriental motifs were adopted by the Greeks can a true understanding of the Greek debt to the east be gained; and such an appraisal must go far beyond comparison of isolated motifs.

page 214 note 2 Barnett, (Catalogue of the Nimrud Ivories, p. 99)Google Scholar suggests that the Near Eastern ‘recessed niches’ afford a prototype for Greek door-mouldings and the Ionic architrave with triple fasciae.

This appears early in the sixth century in Greece where it is a logical step forward in the Greek artist's growing command of realism.
