765. Cast of a portion of the relief on the south side of the tomb at Cadyanda.
At the left end of the relief a girl draped in plain long chiton with sleeves, and a cap with tassel, stands to the right holding an aryballos and alabastron. On the left of the principal relief is a group of four figures playing with knuckle-bones. In front are a girl seated and a girl kneeling, both closely draped and having long hair. Behind are a youth standing, wrapped in a mantle, and a woman who holds an aryballos in her left hand and wears her mantle over her head. All the figures make animated gestures. Near the head of the youth is the inscription Μέσος. Next on the right is a woman seated, holding a boy in her hands, and wearing her mantle over her head. Behind her is a female figure, much mutilated, standing to the left with her right hand under her chin. The remainder of the relief, which is not represented by a cast, appears to have contained either a sacrificial group (Scharf), or warriors (Petersen, Reisen in Lykien, ii., p. 193).
Height, 2 feet ¾ inch; length, 4 feet 2 inches. Fellows, Lycia, frontispiece, and pl. facing p. 116; Synopsis, Lycian Room, No. 151; Petersen, Reisen in Lykien, II., p. 194, fig. 84.
766. Cast of the relief on the north side of the tomb at Cadyanda. This relief which is much mutilated, appears to contain a banquet scene, with four couches, each having two persons reclining and several attendant figures. Two attendants stand near the first couch on the left. One has a wreath in the right hand. Near him is the inscription . . . Α. . . . Α. A smaller figure plays on the flute. On the first couch are remains of a figure seated, nearly erect, and of a figure lying with his head resting on his left hand and having a bowl in his right hand. A portion of the original sculpture is here inserted in the cast. Above is the inscription . . . εασοβ (?), and below is the bilingual inscription edazzala Εἰδασσάλας. The next group is obscure, but appears to consist of a figure seated, with the right hand stretched out, so as to be seen above the head of the figure last described, and a figure holding a child which stretches out its arms to a figure on the right. Below the first of these two figures is the bilingual inscription mezo Μέσος. On the left of the second of the two figures is the bilingual inscription zzala Σάλας, the Lycian being also repeated below, zzal(a). We must, therefore, suppose this figure to be Salas, the owner of the tomb. The child is named horlar (?) On the next couch is a draped figure reclining on the left elbow, and holding out his right hand to the child. Near this figure is the inscription ΣΙΡΟ (?), and below it, remains of an illegible inscription. Next on the right is a small draped female figure, seated on a chair, with the hands stretched out. Behind her is a larger figure standing, with the bilingual inscription ...katamna Ἑκατόμνας. On the third couch are two men reclining. Above the first is the inscription Κπάραμ[ος], and below [k]pparama. Below the second is the bilingual inscription mola Μόλος (?). Below the couch is a dog. On the fourth couch are also two men reclining. Above the first is the inscription Σέσκως, and below remains of the corresponding Lycian inscription ze...wwa. Below the second is a bilingual inscription, in which only the Greek name, Κενδύομις, is legible. A dog stands below the couch.
At the right end of the relief, corresponding to the figure at the left end of the north side, is a nude male figure dancing, with the bilingual inscription äkatam[n]a Ἑκατόμνας.
Height, 2 feet 1 inch; length, 8 feet 8 inches. Fellows, Lycia, pl. facing p. 116 (very inaccurate); C.I.G., 4225; Synopsis, Lycian Room, No. 152; Petersen, Reisen in Lykien, II., p. 193.
VOTIVE RELIEFS.
For an account of Greek votive reliefs, of the occasions on which they were dedicated and of the objects represented, see above, p. [302].
770. Fragment of relief. Zeus, wearing a mantle, is seated on a stool (diphros). His left arm is raised, as if resting on a sceptre. The right hand is extended. Near him is Hera, standing, with her right arm across her breast and her left hand raised to her veil. The relief which is only complete at the right side, was bounded by pilasters and an architrave. The missing part may have contained the figures of suppliants.—Athens (?). Elgin Coll.
