About This Item
Smith College, Northhampton, MA, 1964; First Edition; 8vo, 43 pages of text plus 31 pages of b&w photographic plates; white boards; gilt titles. Thesis study focusing on the question of the dating of the metopes from the temple of Athena at Ilion, unearthed by Schlieman in 1872. Were they part of the structure Strabo claims Lysymachos erected, or did they belong to a later building, dedicated in the time of Augustus? Very Good Plus, without dust jacket, as issued. Clean, crisp, bright, corners sharp, no ownership signatures or any other markings of any kind.
