[*] The cartouche, if it be a true cartouche, cannot have
been that of Kallikrates, as Mr. Holly suggests. Kallikrates
was a priest and not entitled to a cartouche, which was the
prerogative of Egyptian royalty, though he might have
inscribed his name or title upon an _oval_.--Editor.
Also on the right-hand side of this surface of the sherd, painted
obliquely in red on the space not covered by the uncial characters, and
signed in blue paint, was the following quaint inscription:--
IN EARTH AND SKIE AND SEA
STRANGE THYNGES THER BE.
HOC FECIT
DOROTHEA VINCEY.
Perfectly bewildered, I turned the relic over. It was covered from top
to bottom with notes and signatures in Greek, Latin, and English. The
first in uncial Greek was by Tisisthenes, the son to whom the writing
was addressed. It was, "I could not go. Tisisthenes to his son,
Kallikrates." Here it is in fac-simile with its cursive equivalent:--
