Fragment of a horse's tail, and part of the body of a chariot (?).

Height, 3 inches; width, 3-1/2 inches.

_Figures of Harpies (?)._

Certain fragments, which are not easily deciphered, appear to belong to groups of winged draped beings, perhaps Harpies, carrying off diminutive figures. The snakes in Nos. 36-38 suggest the aegis of Athene; but if No. 38 is correctly interpreted, some Gorgon-like figure must be imagined.

[Sidenote: 36.]

Neck and chin of a figure to the left, having a large circular earring, and a fringe of snakes round the neck.

Height, 3-1/2 inches; width, 8 inches.

[Sidenote: 37.]

Fragment with snakes.

Height, 1-1/2 inches; width, 5 inches.

[Sidenote: 38.]

Left hand of the figure No. 36 holding a draped figure under the knees. The right arm must be supposed to have supported the smaller figure, near the shoulders. To the right is part of a pendent wing.

Height, 3 inches; width, 9 inches.

[Sidenote: 39.]

Fragment with extremities of hair, and the beginning of a large wing, curving upwards.

Height, 3-1/2 inches; width, 5 inches.

[Sidenote: 40.]

Fragment, apparently of the same wing as No. 39.

Height, 3-1/2 inches; width, 6 inches.

[Sidenote: 41.]

Fragment of draped thighs of a figure half kneeling to the left with the right leg foremost. If the figure above described was half kneeling in the usual early scheme for the Gorgon, this fragment may well have belonged to it.

Height, 4 inches; width, 6 inches.

[Sidenote: 42.]

Fragment, perhaps from the same figure as the last.

Height, 3 inches; width, 5 inches.

[Sidenote: 43.]

Fragment of a winged, long-haired figure (?). The hair falls in a mass on the tip of the wing.

Height, 7-1/2 inches.

[Sidenote: 44.]

Fragment of a Harpy, with a large bird's leg protruding from fine drapery; behind, a part of a wing. Compare the Harpies on the Harpy Tomb, No. 94.
