Apropos oi what we say as to the statuettes and potteries from Alambra, General di Cesnola tells us that, with the exception of a few objects stolen by his workmen, everything he found in the tombs of the small hill, described at p. 95 of Cyprus, now belongs to the New York collection ; but he admits that other very ancient tombs were found at Alambra. Now we do not believe .that there is any sensible difference between the things from these tombs and those from the excavations made by Cesnola himself. Moreover a certain number of things found by him at this point were sold in Paris before he began his negotiations with the FIG. 368. Limestone statuette. Height ii inches. United States. It was at those sales that M. Albert Barre obtained many of the curious things in his collection. Page 179, et seq. One of the few votive figures with an inscription was found at Salamis by M. Alexandre di Cesnola (Salaminia, p. 91). It has a Greek inscription in Cypriote letters engraved vertically on the front of its robe (Fig. 368). This is transcribed both by Dr. Birch and Mr. Sayce as follows : Mourfoipo* Karaffrrjae /ie. It is, therefore, a votive offering. Page 205. In title to cut, for "frog," read " hawk." This mistake arose through the defects of the photograph sent to me by General di Cesnola. Page 208. Title to Fig. zgfor " marble," read " limestone "; (note by General di Cesnola). VOL. IT.
