The term (Latin ‘gypsum’ or ‘gypsus’) covered both the mineral gypsun and the product of its calcination, plaste of Paris (calcium sulphate), which wa specially favoured in Hellenistic and Roma times for sculpture in the round and casting but some ancient writers, in addition, con fused gypsum with lime (calcium oxide) Theophr.

Eichholz's commentary [1965], pp. 532 f.); E. L. Wadsworth, M.A.A.R. iv (1924), 18 n. 2. Lime is the basis of the more durable plaster used in Greek and Roman times mainly for wall-surfacing and (in Roman times) for relief decoration: it is to this that we normally apply the term ‘stucco’.

^{page 152 note 5} Pausanias says only that the sanctuary is old, not the temple-building. The temple is thought to have stood in the area now occupied by the ruins of the Katholikon, at the northern edge of the city: R.E. ivA, col. 450; N. D.

^{page 154 note 3} Most of the pre-Ptolemaic evidence comes from the second millennium: to the references cited by Wadsworth, art. cit., pp. 9 f., we may add the painted reliefs in the tombs of Queen Nefertari and Amenemopet (B. Porter and R. L. B. Moss, Topographical Bibliography of Ancient Egyptian Hieroglyphic Texts, Reliefs, and Paintings, 2nd edn., i [1960–1964], 762–5, no. 66, and 259 f., no. 148; cf. K. Lange and M.

There follows a long gap in the evidence, but this may well be due to the general paucity of archaeological material from this period. Prof. J. R. Harris, to whom I am grateful for guidance in an unfamiliar field, expresses the opinion that the proliferation of plaster work in Ptolemaic times was largely a native development from something already established. Indeed, at least one piece may possibly be datable to the first half of the fourth century: a cast in Munich that may be a portrait of Nectanebo I, who reigned 380–363 B.C.
