ferings for the dead, including terra cotta figurines, masks, lamps and a great variety of vessels were also found. The pile in front of Artemis’ temple yielded a great variety of lamps and terra cotta ikons.

Dr. C. C. McCown, director of the American School, and the dean of the Pacific School of Religion at Berkeley, Cal., told the Jewish Telegraphic Agency that they and Professor C. I. Fischer believe that further excavations promise even more startling discoveries.
