T HE marble throne which was found in 1836 between the peristyle and the pronaos of the Parthenon' (pl. 47, figs. 1-4) has been published and republished many times, always as a work of the fourth century B.C.2 The reasons advanced for this date are: (1) the character of the letters in the inscription, (2) the use of o for ov in the inscription, (3) the style of the decoration. The case is an exceedingly interesting one, for in addition to the Akropolis example there are no less than three replicas-in Berlin3 (pl. 48, figs. 5, 6), in San Gregorio Magno in Rome 4 (pl. 49, figs. 9-12), and in the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston5
