INTRODUCTION.
I. SUBJF.CT MATTRR.
Tlie j)r('S(Mil voliiiiic contains a calaloj;ue ol' plaster and clav moulds intended for the fabrication of bronzes and terracottas *''. Stamps and stone moulds have not been included. A large part of the material has been exhibited in the Museum for nian\ \ears. though it has attracted little attention hitherto. The only mention of it, so far as I am aware, occurs in the Notice of iScj.^-y where it is described as rr monies pour fabi-iquer des tetes de Bes, etc. '^ (p. lo i , Salle ^3, ArmoireC) ^-\ The uioiilds for bronzes foi in far I he larger and more interesting part of the collection. They not only comprise some charming fragments of later Greek art, but they are also important for their l»earing on the question of ancient bronze- casting. This portion of the material being prol)ably unique, I have described it at some length in the following introduction, which I hope will be found useful even though the explanations offered be not always correct : for it is a somewhat peri- lous subject lo handle without a practical knowledge of modern technique.
II. PROVENANCE.
§ 1 . What is known about the provenance of the moulds is, in exact terms, as follows. Four of those for bronzes (n°^ 82 i/ia , 82 188, 82286 and 82866) are numbered in the Museum Inventory or Journal (F En In'r; of these one came from Saqqarah in 1898, while the others were brought from MitRahineh (the ancient Memphis) in October, 1 897. Further, the recollections of the Museum authorities enable me to state with certainty that at least a large proportion of the others
(1) It will be olisei'ved (liat several of the objects catalogued ai'c of purely Egyptian type. They ap])ear, however, lo belong lo the same finds as the other moulds and it did not seem advisable lo separate Ihcin. I( is often dillicnlt to draw a strict dividing line between Greek, Egyptian and Coptic antiquilies, and a lit lie overlapping between some of the volumes of the Calnloiruc General is quite inevitable.
(2) Tlic (lescriplion, Ibongh biief, is not quite accurate, for ihe ff teles de Hes-^ can only refer lo llic h\(i large fijiui-es of I5es catalogued under n"' Z-iciili and .')->o'y(J.
(all of lliL'iii iiidoi'tl so I'ai- as is known ) come rioiii llio same source. Of ihe moulds lor lorracollas llie only one lliat has been entered in the Inventory, n" 3-^30)0. was likewise found al Mil naliiiich.
S 9. To this |)ositive information I vcnlwrc to add a su{J'^,estion ol m\ own. When this part of the oataloj^ue came lo he undertaken, it was found thai in addition to the moulds and fragments exhibited in Room XLllI the Museum contai- ned four boxfuls ofsimilar fragments stored in \arious magazines '''.These hidden treasures w.-re evidently part of the same finds as the exhibited pieces, for it turned out that in many cases the disjecia membra of one and the same mould had been impartially distributed between ihe store-room and the show-room. Now the contents of one of the above-mentioned boxes were markedly distinct from those of the others and probably therefore belonged to a separate find. In the first place they were without exception smeared and discoloured with the soil, while the others were com|)araiivelv clean and white : and in the second plac(! there were certain technical difl'erences between the two sets as will be pointed out later on. To this unwashed class also belonged certain of the show pieces and amonj; them the three moulds which are known to have come from Mit Rahineh. The Avliole of this group therefore may with great ])rohability be assigned lo a Memphian fabric, while at the same time it is more than likely that most of the other moulds also come from the same centre. The above group will be referred to as group A throughout the following pages, and I have thought it worth while to mark with an asterisk each of the objects that belonged to the aforesaid box ; for even if I Ik- conjecture as to their provenance be wrong, it is at least pretty certain that they constitute a single find.
§ 3. The moidds of group A are without exception intended for the manufac- ture of bronzes and not of terracottas, and ihev have apparently formed |)art of the debris of a bronze foundry. The same conclusion may be drawn wilh regard to the moulds outside grou|) A ; the bulk of ihem can only have come Irom the ruins or rubbish-heaps of one or more bronze factories. 1 1 is very probable
(i) The number of fragments before lliey liiid been pieced together must liave ])een close on a lliousand. A large (juantily, consisting of verv fragmentary material and of a few uninstructive duplicates, was finally rejected and remains for the present in the Museum magazines. It is of course quite possible that some of the rejected fragments may Ixdong to pieces included in Ihe Catalogue, but 1 spent a good long time in tilling tlieni together and I hope llial nothing of iinir!i importance has escaped undi'lecled.
luoreover lliiiL the most of these heh)iij; to one hirjjf! ijroiip, lor lhe\ eloselv resemble each other in general appearance and in technique. Foi' convenience' sake let ns call ihein group B. The remainder of the material will consist then ol" a few uncertain cases and of tiie moulds lor terracottas. The latter will he discus- sed in a separate section ; lor the present it is sufficient to remark that ihey are undoubtedly derived from more than one workshop.
m. DESCRIPTION OF THE MOULDS FOR BRONZES.
S I . The moulds here catalogued, exclusive of those intended for terracottas, are without exception made of plaster. An analysis of two fraguients, one of which was selected from group A and the other from B, shows the composition of the plaster to be as follows. :
A. B.
Silica and Insolul)le 1.98 3./i9
Iron and Atuminium Oxides 1 .4o 0.76
Calcium Carbonate trace trace
Calcium Sulpliate 78.70 7/1.60
Combined water 91.62 91.62
100.00 100.00
Mr. Lucas, who made the above analysis, adds the following remarks, re It will be seen that the two samples are very similar in composition, ff A ^, however, contai- ning 1 1/2 per cent less impurities than rrB^i, is slightly the better of the two. Both samples correspond to Plaster of Paris of good quality and not to native Egyptian Plaster ».
§ 3. The general way in which the moulds were made can be easily inferred. Let us take the simplest case, a mould of two |)arts only, such as n° 3 9 020 (pis. IV and XXIX). A coat of plaster, more or less liquid, was first applied to one side of the model. The edge of this coat was made clean and smooth, and notches were cut at intervals round the outer side of it. The first half of the mould having been allowed to harden (and remaining or being once more attached to the model), the other side of the model was then enveloped in a similar coat of sli|). The second half of the mould would thus receive an equally clean edge, with projections fittings into the notches of the first half. At one end of the mould an opening was either left or made, and this orifice, it may be observed, is always halved between the two sections.

§ 5. The ohjects made in these plaster moulds (of whatever material tlic\ may have consisted) have with a few exceptions, such as the lin\ figure n° Saoao, been cast in several separate pieces. To do this it was necessary first of all to dismember the original model. The arms and legs were usiialh cut off, together with any |)rojecting attribute such as Ihc c/*/<(my.sofn"320i3; theheadalso, even in I he case of a six or eight inch slaluellc. was frequenlK severed from the shouhhu's. Separate piece-moulds ol the various parls were then constructed. To prevent subsequent confusion the arms and legs res|)ectively were very often made in a single mould in wliicji they wcic placed side 1)\ side (e. g. 32 199, 39 1 54). Sometimes also we find a row olarms, legs and various allnhiilcs in a single lonj; mould of Iwo sections (v. 39 166 If.). \\ c meet with instances again of two or more conlijiiious limbs which evicb'ulb hidon;; to dilferenl persons and have foiiiied pail of a group (e. g. 39i35j.

§ 6. Inlheilisinemhi'i'ineiil of llie model llie subsoqiieni junction of the separa- lcl\ mouldeJ pieces li;i(l of course to l)e Itonie in mind. The line of junction between two parts of a ligun.' is usually strai};lit. In some cases there is a slight jaggedness which is possihi\ intentional, though it may also be due to careless cutting of the model (e. g. 32o3/t). In other cases, however, the line is markedly irregular and angular, and the object of this irregularity must have been to make the two pieces fit together with greater ease and accuracy *'^ On another series of figures (all of them belonging to group B) we find a short slit at right angles lo the line of junction and no doubt there was a corresponding slit in the part which was to be joined on (see 82008, pi. X).
§ y. The openings into the moulds mentioned in § 9 are of two main types. The usual sort consists of a rather small, more or less round hole, of which n" 3 a :3 86 ( pi. XXXII ) aflords a good example. But in other cases we find a compa- ratively large piece left open at one end of the mould, as for instance the neck of a human or e(|ulne head or the lower end of a cliiton : to this t\[»e belongs the large Pohkleitean mould n" 32 336. A few moulds have openings at two different points (e. g. 32127), but this is rare. Moulds for human figures have the orifice as a rule at the lower end of the figure, though there are a few exceptions to this practice such as 82001 (pi. I). N" 82018 (pi. Ill) may be pointed out as a typical mould of group B; the opening here is at the right thigh, and the left hip is made in one piece with the left leg instead of with the rest of the torso*-*, a technical peculiarity which is likewise observable on several of the separately made legs, e. g. 821 54. N" 32o45 (pi. Ill) offers a good illustration of a diffe- rently constructed opening with a curving channel leading into each thigh. But as all such particulars are noted in the text of the catalogue, it is unnecessary to say more about them here.
S 8. Besides the openings into the moulds we frequently find cross-channels between two points in the interior. When one part of the mould branches olf from the main liody and curves upwards (that is, upwards with reference to the mouth

It is possible that these were meanl to serve a practical puipose. A mould of several pieces would probably require to be tied to^jether in the course of beinjj used, and tbt; knobs on the outside would be very convenient for faste- ning a string. These knobs are cbaraclcrislic of group B, whereas in /V they occur in only one certain iiislaiice, n" Saooa. The lirst made portion of the mould is sometimes overlapped round the outside of its odge by the subsecjuently made sections, a natural result of the wav in which llic mould is constructed; and in some cases we find marks of smoolhinji-down alon*; llic pinction of two sections. \ few iiioiibls have some Greek lettiM's engraved on the outside (see Index), which, bowevt'r. do not convey much inb)rmation to us : one inscription, n" 32 i aG. may |)erba|)s refer lo the siib|ecl re|»r(!seiiled.
IV. GREEK BROrSZE-CASTING.
§ 1. It has been assumed lliroujjhout the preceding [)ages that the moulds under discussion wei'e intended for the fabrication of bronzes. To satisfy oneself on this point no more is necessary than lo glance through the illustrations on |)ls. I-XXI : il caiiiiol be doubted but that bronze was ibe material in which such objects as these were meant lo be exectili'd. Hut bow exactly the plaster moulds were used in the process of bronze-casting is less evident.
S f!. For the understanding of this (jiieslioii it will be useful lo describe, very summarilv, a lew dilfcrcnl wa\s of casting bronzes. The three following methods arc ihe most important for our piiiposc ( i ). The lijj'iire is modelled in loam or some other material lo within a slight deplb of the size desired and is then linished ofT
in wax , so that it consists of an eartliy core with a thin wax surface. Over this there is then appiied a thick coating of loam or other material fitted for the purpose. This is the mould. The wax having heen melted and allowed to escape and the mould having heen sufficiently baked, the liquid metal is then poured into the empty space between the core and the mould. Finally, the bronze having cooled down, the mould is chip|)ed away from the outside and the core may be extracted from the interior. This method of course involves the destruction of the mould. (2). A plaster piece-mould is formed over the original model ''I The inside of this is coated with wax and filled up with a core. The plaster sections having been taken oir, the wax surface is touched up and is then covered with a mould of loam or other composition. The final mould is of course destroyed after the casting of the bronze, but the plaster |)iece-mould remains intact, so that duplicates can be turned out almost mechanically. Instead of having softened wax pressed into it, the inside may l)e first of all coated with a thin layer of some equally plastic subs- tance ; the core having been formed, this layer is removed and molted wax is poured into the empty space between the core and the piece-mould. The core itself again is most easily made b\ being poured into the mould in a liquid state : it may consist either of loam or of some plaster composition. (3). The bronze itself may be cast in a mould of two or more sections, the junction of which leaves a seam on the surface that has to be removed in the final touching-up '-^ The most familiar application of this method is the castingof a simply shaped article in sand-boxes. As objects with much undercutting cannot easily be cast whole in this way, they are frequently made in several pieces. If it be desirable to have a hard model that will stand a good deal of handling, either the original clay model mav be baked, or (what is a better plan, seing that clay shrinks considerably in the firing) a plaster cast may be taken by means of one or more plaster piece-moulds.
§ 3. Stripped of technical details, such are the main methods of casting bronzes. They apply to solid as well as to hollow casting, the only difference being that for the former sort of work no core is required : thus if one wanted a solid-cast article made by either of the first two processes, the final model would require to be entirely composed of wax. It is not self-evident (at least to one without technical experience) for what part of what process our moulds have been employed. It is.

Al first siglil. il IS simplest to suppose tiial [lie\ were used for the actual castnij; ol llie bronze. I)iil llioufjh bronzes ai<' sometimes cast in plasteu moulds, the plaster em|do\ed is not of the same composition as ours: it contains a very large proportion of brick- dust or oilier foreiijn mailer : a mould ol ordiiiarN gypsum (so I am informed by experienced founders) would be iiscdess except for quil(^ low temperature casting. It might be conjectured again llial llie\ were used for taking plaster casts of the original model willi a view lo llie conslruclioii of scclion-moiilds (of suitable material) lor the castiu;; of ihe bronze. From the technical point of view this is a possible explanation. Bui it seems to me far more likidv thai tlie\ correspond lo the piece-moulds described under process (•>)• In this case, if a solid casting were wanted, nudted wax would be pounvl through the narrow openingsand (diannels until the mould was lilled up: if the oltject were to be cast hollow, either the wa\ or the core, or both of them, would be poured into the mould in a liquid condition.
^ U. The ol)jects made III the plaster moulds have consisted, asarule, of several separate pieces. It is a well-known fact that ancient statues were usuallv, if not invariably, cast in separate parts w hich were afterwards joined together. Even quite small statuettes often bear traces of having been cast in more than one piece. But the number of portions into which the objects made in our monlds are divided is, in comparison with small bronzes of similar tvpe, abnormally great. It does not follow . however, that the number of moulds which go to each object represents the number of [)ieces in which the bronze was finally cast. The primary purpose for which the original model was dismembered was to allow of piece-moulds being convenienth made. As the piece-moulds were merely eniploved for making the final model, it was quite easy for some or all of the sej)arate pieces to be joined together before the casting- of the l)ronze, and in all probability this was regularly done. For instance the lri|)od base of a candelabrum, as made in the plaster moulds, is composed of at leasl three and perhaps six parts (e. g. n"' Ba'iSy and SaSB-'i), whereas as a matter of fact such objects were usualh cast in a single piece. In sect. Ill, §6,1 described one or two expedients forefTecting an accurate junction between the separately cast parts of a figure : it was |»robab|y for the final mod(d rallier lliaii lor llie bronze llial these were iiilciided . llioii.nh indeed some
may have served lor llie one and others for tlie other'*'. We may conceive the whole process lohavc hceti somevvliat as follows. Tlie oripjinal model on being completed was handed over lo llic iiioiddcr wdio cut it ii|) into a convenient nnmher of seclions and on cacli ol llicse conslruclcd a plaslcr piece-monld. In these moulds a set of \\a\-c()al('d . porous-cored sections was Ihcn casl. I»\ what particular method we can only guess. These again the modellertook in hand, joining them together (or at least as many as could he successfully manipulated), removing ihe seams, sharpening and impioving Ihe details. Small projisclions such as the ears of a horse ( cf. n" S-^oo i ll'.j would prohahly he added hy hand (in wa\j. The model was then made ready for the final mould. Projecting and connecting rods of wax were attached at suilahle places, or such as alreadv existed were ulilized (cf. n" 3'i'?37), and melal pins were inserted in the mod(d lo hold it steady in the mould. I'^inallv the mould was applied in a more or less Inpiid condition; the wa\ was melted out, leaving op(Miings and channels in place of the former wax I'ods; and when ihe wliolc had heen sufficiently hardened hy haking, the bronze was poured in.
S 5 . The passages in ancient literature which deal with the technique of bronze- casting are very scanty and do not give us much assistance *"-'. The most important is one from Pollux (X, 189) which runs as follows : avTo fJk to tsvXivov, 6 -aepisi- AvSe tA tsXa^BiwoL xvpiva., a xaTcc tvv tov TSvpos TSpOT^opav rvKCTai xa.1 tsoXXo, ixsivv T/5V7r);piaTa svanrAsineTXi , XiySos x/xlsiTCcr of)s.v xai 'SiO(prjxXfis £pv £'' At;^fjLa- XflncLis- da-Tris filv vfxiv Xiy^hs ws ■tsvxr'OfJ.fjia.Tei. The first thing- to note about this passage is that it definitely implies the employment of wax as a medium between the mould and the core : for it can scarcelv be supposed that Pollux is here speaking of solid casting onh. There can be little doubt in fact that the Greeks were thoroughly famdiar with the waste-wax process. In the next place it is perhaps most probable that the method which the passage refers to is the first of llie three described in § a ; for the expression ra -rsXcca-OivToi. xijpiva. is more appro- priate to this llian to any other method. At the same time there is nothing in the phraseology that is decidedly inconsistent with the details of the piece-mould ])rocess n" 2. Lasth. il is to be remarked that the mould itself is made of clav or loam {^To 'csvXivov). From a few other passages '^' we learn, what is amply confirmed by extant bronzes, that statues were usuallv cast in several pieces.

§ (). There a|»|»ears (o he no reference in Greek or Roman literature to the use of" piece-mouhls in hi'onze-castinj;, whclhiT in ihc linal or in the |)euultinial(; stage of tlie work. Il is tolerahly certain, however, that some metliod of Ihis sort was in common practice, holh tor small figures ami for larjje, and foi" hollow casting as well as for solid casting. Cases of duplicates among ancient hronzes ''', such as can onlv he due to some |)iece-moul(l process, are chiefly confined to vase-handles and ohjects of that class, hut I here are also instances in the higher sphere of statuarvart : prohahly a good many mij;hl he identified if one were to search for them. To take an example from close at hand, there are two staln(!ttes of A|>hrodite in the Cairo Museum which are evident duplicates of each other*''. The British Museum possesses two large slatu»!tt(;s of llerakles which are identical in general form though slighlh different in detail'^* : in such a case it is quite conceivahle that the final models were made in the same moulds hut somewhat differently touched u|i hefore casting. There are several hronzes again in th Naples collection which seem to he derived, either wholly or partly, from the same moulds : one conspicuous example is the well-known paii- of wrestlers in the 3"' room'*'. The bronze statues found at Pompeii and Herculaneum are largely copies of earlier works. From the numberless marble copies of Greek master- pieces scattered over the Museums of Europe we can judge how great a demand there must have been for such reproductions in the Imperial age, and there is no reason for thinking that hronzes were less sought after than marbles. It is hardly likelv, therefore, that the workmen who kept the market supplied with Diadumeni and Apo.vi/omeni, instead of using some mechanical means of reproduction, should have constructed a new model by free hand on every occasion that they received an order for another copy of an old masterpiece. The Polykleitean head in our collection is an instructive piece of evidence in this respect : how many duplicates mav not this one mould have helped to turn out! Apart, however, from the question of re|)licas and commercial advantages, the piece-mould processes have one decided superiority from the technical point of view ; for, if the casting of a statue, or of any separate part of it, be imperfect, a better cast can be taken without much

It has been ingeniously argued that the saying of Polykleitos, ws salt y^aXenwraTOV olvtwv to i'pyov ois civ els ovvyjx o •nrj^Aos a^ixj/rat, proves him to have been in the habit of working with piece-moulds, otherwise he would have said x-npos instead of •wj;A6? as the final modelling would have been done in wax ■' . ^^ helher this particular argument be accepted or not, it is of itself entirely probable that some piece-mould process was in use from the earliest period of statuary art. The Greeks are not likely, as used to be supposed ''^', to have restrictetl themselves to the one variety of the circ -perdue uiethod to which the description of i*ollu\ presumably refers.
V. SUBJECTS OF THE MOULDS : THEIR CHARACTER A\D DATE.
^ 1 . The moulds, both of group A and group B, are intended for the manufac- ture not only of statuettes but of lamps, candelabra, tripods and various other utensils. The statuettes may be roughly divided into three classes. The most of them are of purely Greek style ; others represent Egyptian types modified by Greek influence, such as some of the Isiac figures and some of the figures of Harpokrates; and a third, still smaller class consists of works of purely Egyptian style (e. g. 82079). The fact that they come from the same find and the fact that they are identical in general appearance and in technique make it probable that even the entirely Egyptian articles were made in the same fabrics as the Greek objects, whether for native custom or as specimens of native work for foreign inhabitants and visitors. As certainlv a great many and very likely the whole of the moulds come from Memphis, it is interesting to recall the description which Strabo gives of its population in the Augustan age ( c. 7 0 y ) : tsoXis S'ia-Ti fxeyaX>; re xai svavSpos , SevT£pa fisTO. 'AXe^OLvSpsiav, fxtya^o)?^ avSpvv, xoiddirsp xai raw ixsi <7\jvwxia[i.h>wv. That is to say, it was an Egyptian town with a mixture of Europeans and Levan- tines, not unlike the modern Cairo. The mixed character of its inhabitants is reflected l)y the moulds, which may be regarded as a random selection from the bazaar of the Greek bronze-casters.
§ 9. Memphis being only an off'shoot of Alexandria so far as Greek culture is concerned , the moulds give us a gootl idea of the kind of work that was being

The most conspicuous cases are poinled mil under n'" ^aao/i- 32r?r)C) and 32 3;?G, hut it would he eas\ to extend ihe comparisons. These parallels, which are furnished holh h\ A and h\ B, suggest an approximate date for the Cairo moulds. Furlher, there is not onl\ a (lose likeness in details between the ornamenlal iilensils from Memphis and lliose from Pompeii, there is also a general similarih in the character ol the more juirely artistic ohjecis Irom fli(! two places, the same mixture oi genre figures, deities of Hellenistic type and copies of ancient masterpieces. It is evident that lliev holh belong to the same chapter of art.
^ 'i. The various pieces in ihe colleclion are no! all on the same lev(d of stvle and merit. This, however, is probabU not due lo am great dilference of date between them, hiil meie|\ to differences in the tvpes which thev reproduce: for il ina\ be assumed lliat lliere is nothing of original iineution about aii\ ol llieiii. As has been said, thtn presiimabK re[)resent the dchris of one or two lactones. We do not know indeed whether this (Jrhvi-s was the result ol a sudden accident or of gradual accnmnlalion : in lIn' latter case it ina\ c()\er a considerable number of vears, and some objects in the series ma\ be apprecialilv earlier than others. But as a whole the collection iiia\ bi' safeb assigned to the ixomaii period : and judging from the st\le of several Iragnieiits I think thai al least pari of it is
nearer lo llic Aulonine th;ui lo llie Augustan ajje. The Alexandrian coins of llie second century provide a few significant parallels.
.^ 5. Of llie individual fragincnis there is one that deserves special attiMition, n" 3233G (pi. I). It has helonged lo a figure of aitoul two thirds life size, and, ihouf'h much injured, hears unuiistakeahle traces of llie sl\le of Polykleitos. The eye and mouth are hadly preserved, hut the hair, the modelling of the brow and the line of the nose are sufiicieiilU characteristic to estahlish its origin. The hair round the forehead is identical, lock for lock, with that of the Bovijphoros : farther hack the arrangement is slightly dilTerenl, though the g(Mieral treatment is qnite the same. The lower part of the face appears to he of softer form than that of the ahove-mentioned work, hut the fragment is too incomplete to judge l)\ with safety. So far as one can see, it contains no mixtnre of late elements but is a laithtul representative of 5"' century style. In spite of its comparative smallness it may quite well be a re[)roduction of a life size work, for though marble copies as a rule are true to ihe dimensions of the original. l»ronze copies on the other hand, perhaps foreconom\"s sake, seem lo have been often casi of souiewhat smaller size. Two familiar instances of this practice are the Vlbani cop\ of the Saurok lonos und one of the female figures from Herculaneum of which I here also exists a marble jeplica.
M. THE MOULDS FOR TEURACOTTAS.
§ 1. Certain of the moulds in \W Cairo collection nw clearly intended foi' the fabrication of terracotta objects. As it happens, they are mixed up somewhat indi- scriminately with the moulds for bronzes in the following catalogue, although I have pointed them out as best I could wherever they occur. The most of the sub- jects will be found illustrated on pis. XXIII-X\\ III. and a selection of typical moulds is shown on pi. XXXIIl. It is quite possible that a few of the moulds in ([uestion ma\ have been used for making yrtie«re figures with blue-glazed surface , but I have nol atlempted lo disllnguish between them : for present pur[)oses, in fact, I include the glazed wan- in the general lerm of lerracotta.
:? 2. Like the uiouhls for bronzes, they are made for the most part of plaster. The onl\ exceplions are the dog n" 82199, the altar n" 320 11, the phallic figure n" 32860, and some hite lamps n"" 82803, 82 3o.")-32 3o9. The moulds for lerra- colfa slaluetles and lamps ihal have I n found in (Ireece itself nre all made ol
(•l;i\. and llir()U{;liuiit llio classical world claj sooius lo have hccn llic usual iiialrrial lor this sort ol" work '"'.
§ 3. It mav be asked how can wo disUuguish llic Iwo sorts ol nioiiids. those lor bronzes and those lor terracottas. As a general rule there is little (lijliculty in doing so. The first and most important criterion is the t\|»(! of the representation, which is in most cases suflicient lo show whelhei- tin' work belongs to the bronzes or to the terracottas : it would not be (!asv, lor instance, to find a bionze llarpo- krates like n" 82062 or a terracotta one like n° 82027. Sometimes, however, the type by itself is of little use as evidence : as far as the type goes, n° 82001 mijjht be just as well a terracotta as a bronze. But in the second place there are technical differences. Greek terracottas were made by pressing the clay against the interior walls of the mould and not by castin^r or pouring in a li(juid sli|> '-'. When, therefore, we find a mould with a small, specially made opening (^sect. HI, § 7) or with an interior channel (sect. Ill, ^ 8), such an one for instance as n" 89001, we mav \nUn- that this is not a mould for terracottas. When on the contrary we find a mould with an upward branch and no connecting channel between this branch and the main body, there is a fair presumption that this is not a mould for bronzes (e. g. 'i-iook). Further, it is unnecessary that a mould for terracottas should have any opening at all. and as a matter of fact they fre- quently have none (see especially n"' 8 9 :? 9 9 If. ) : or, again , they may be entirely open at both ends like 8981 1. When the figure, however, is provided with a plinth or has a broad lower end such as the foot of a garment, the mould is left open below : it was needless to close it in as the opening would not be visible when the finished terracotta was set up. and besides it would be of service as a vent for evaporation during the process of baking. As some of the moulds for bronzes are also left open below (sect. Ill, S 7 ), there is in such cases a certain risk of confusion between the two classes.
(1) Plaster moulds for lamps are mentioned in Daremberci el Saglio, Lucenia, p. i333. It has been conjectured on technical grounds that several of tlie terracotta statuettes which were found in Tarsus in i845 were made in plaster moulds, and the probability of this conjecture is increased by the fact that the find included a few moulded figures which were themselves made of plaster (Barker, Lares and Penates, pp. 168-171 )■ There an; also some fragments of plaster moulds for pottery at Zurich (Blijmner, Tech. u. Term., II, p. 106).
(3) There is no intrinsic reason why they should not have been made by casting in plaster moulds without cores as so much of our modern pottery is manufactured. (The method is briefly this : the mould having been lilh^d willi llie liquid slip, a coat of clay forms against (he ptaslei- wall
§ h. There are some furllier, but less reliable cliaracteristics which help us to distinguish the moulds for terracottas in our collection. Unlike the others they seldom consist of more than two pieces. Again they are generally, if not invariably, rounded off on the outside, while those for bronzes are almost always left rough and sometimes pi'ovided with a few special projections (sect. Ill, § 9)- Thus a mould of two sections with a regularly rounded exterior, other reasons apart, may be regarded as more likely to have been intended for terracottas than for bronzes. There is. however, a group of moulds of this description the subjects of which are more like bronze types ^^\ If these were really used for bronzes they must belong to a different fabric from groups A and R and have been made exactly as moulds for terracottas would have been made. On the other hand it is not at all unlikely that bronze types were sometimes copied in earthenware and that this was the purpose for which the above moulds were used : such a one as n° SaoSo might even have been made on an actual bronze. This, I think, is the more probable explanation. Lastly, the edges of several moulds bear traces of a red substance which was probably applied for some technical reason : I have not observed any certain instance of this peculiarity in A or B '^', but it is a very com- mon characteristic of the moulds for terracottas.
S 5. The way in which the moulds were made and used may now be briefly described. The model or proplasma having been prepared, the mould was formed on this in two or more parts (cf. sect. Ill, § 2). Notches were cut at intervals round the edges of the first made half, or, as in the case of 82082, small holes were sunk a little way in from the edge; these of course caused corresponding projections in the edges of the second half; and thus the two portions of the mould could be firmly and closely fitted together. When the mould was ready for use, a thin laver of damp clay was pressed into the interior of each half. The two halves were then fitted into each other by means of the notches and projec-
and when ttiis has become suilably thick, the rest of the slip is poured out again). But there is no evidence that this process was ever used for Greek terracottas. On the contrary, extant speci- mens invariably show marks of pressure and also traces of junction (on the inside) between their separate sections. Further, the moulds in question are not adapted for the above process : some are open at both ends, others have no opening at all, and others are much higher in front than behind (e. g. 82080).
(1) N°' Saoai, 32o5o, 39061 and 32 965 are the most evident instances, and there are a few other cases about which 1 do not feel very sure.
(9) N° 32 2o5 is a possible example.

TIk' moulds for leiTaeollas, unlike lliose for bronzes, are lor the most pari l)i|)ai'tile; n'" 32 i gc) and Ba 200, as well as llie Ei|> plian j>roii|) just mentioned, are exceptions to the {general rnle. Those which re[)resent human figures are always divided into front and back, the back beings either finished, as in the case of n" 39006, or a plain rounded surface, e. g. 3^065. The plain rounded backs of the Tanagra figures appear to have been hand-made (see Daremberg et Saglio, Ftgli- mun, p. 1 1 3 0 ) , but those of the ordinary Graeco-Egy ptian terracottas were always made in one mould along with the front of the statuette. If the work was of a more ambitious order, [trojecting limbs were made separately in bipartite moulds and attached before firing (e. g. Baoyy, 32ii5).
§ 8. Terracotta lamps and other utensils were moulded in the same way as the statuettes. The lamp-moulds, of which the present collection contains a good inan\ specimens ''', are divided into two parts, one for the top or discus and another for the bowl or rraler. The more elaboi'ate handles, such as Baagy, were made in separate moulds. It ma\ be remarked that the moulds for bronze lamps have a further division through the middle of thecmto"(e. g. 82287 11".), another instance of the general rule that the moulds for bronzes are composed of more pieces than those for terracottas. N" 828 10 is a late lamp-mould of peculiar technique ; it is probably hand-mode, and it is at least certain that the ornamentation was incised on the mould instead of being done in relief upon a model. The oil-hole and wick-hole are usually indicated in low relief on the mould : as a rule they would require to be cut out clean on the lamp itself.
^ 9. It is no( known where the above moulds were found, though, as in the case of those for bronze-casting, Mit Rahineh is the most probable source. The only one that is entered in the Inventory, n" 82860, does in fact come from Mil Rahineh. Though one cannot say how many fabrics they represent, it is impossible that they can all belong to the dchrin of a single factory : the case just cited, for instance, n° 82860, stands quite apart, lioth in style and in technique, from such figures as n"' 8200/1 11. It would be out of place here to discuss any of the individual objects in the collection : in their present context they are too isolated, and it is only in a general review of Graeco-Egy ptian terracottas that they could be properly studied.
