APPENDIX VOL. I. Fig. 73 ; for " alabaster," read " white marble." Page 234. Note i. The publication of the Bullettino has been recom- menced under the editorship of S. Ettore Pais. The year 1884 is the first of this Serie Seconda, which deserves our gratitude for the zeal and critical efficiency with which it is edited. FIG. 365. Terra-cotta model of a chapel. Louvre. Page 287. With the terra-cotta model reproduced in Fig. 208 of our first volume, may be compared the simpler terra-cotta chapel here repro- duced (Fig. 365) ; here there is no porch supported by columns, as in the other example ; there is nothing but a window at which one of those woman-headed birds, which the Greeks made into the Sirens, appears. The pigeon holes round the top show that this was a dove-cot inhabited by the sacred bird of Astarte.
