page 206 note 1 The decorative scheme is rightly interpreted as suggesting a ἡρῷον or τέμϵνος with a low surrounding wall. For the ornamental carpet which is painted on the roof a later parallel may be found in a hitherto unpublished fresco recently discovered below the Domus Flavia on the Palatine.
page 206 note 2 This is twice quoted (pp. 237, 360); Rostovtseff tends to repeat himself in details.
page 207 note 1 These paintings (cf. pi. lxxxviii, 1, xxc, 1) illustrate the use of lights in funeral cult treated in this Journal (v, p. 159 ff) by Mr. G. McN. Rushforth; see Rostovtseff, p. 365 and reff. there given to Sartori, Feuer und Licht in Totengebrauche (Zeitschr. des Vereins für Volkskunde, xvii, 361), and Samter, Geburt Hochzeit und Tod, p. 76 ff. Note the fine bronze candelabrum discovered in Zaitsev's vault (pl. lx); others are mentioned p. 207, n. 2.
page 207 note 2 Vita Antonini Pii, 9, cf. the British School Catalogue of the Museo Capitolino, Filosof. 83. Is it possible that one of these was buried in Ashik's vault?
