The attitude and disposition of the drapery are characteristic, G. M. 555. M. Cap. iv, 1., and the Zeus-like drapery in the figure in Zahn 7., as well as in the Ambrosian Iliad throughout, especially tv. 47. It is still doubtful whether the Achilles Borghese (V. Borgh. i, 9. Bouill. ii, 14. [Visconti M. Scelti Borghes. i, 5.], interesting as regards the history of art from its Polyclitan proportions [?] and a certain hardness in the handling), is really Achilles; the attitude and age correspond to the statuse Achillese in Plin. xxxiv, 10., and the e7ria(pv^ioi/ is perhaps an allusion to the com- plete armour. The busts in Dresden 386. Aug. 35., in Munich 83. M. Nap. ii, 59., M. Worsl. i, 7., Tischb. H. i, 6. [is from the Borghese statue] and p. 40., are at all events connected with the statue and demand a Hke explanation; there is in all a certain dash of softness and melancholy, which is altogether unsuitable to Ares, but might very well be given by an artist to Achilles. Of an equestrian statue of Achilles, Malchos p. 273. ed. Bonn. PharsaUan consecrated gift: Achilles on horseback, Pa- troclus walking alongside (Paus. x, 13, 3. Cod. Mosc.); from it a name may be given to the horseman on the coins of the city. Achilles' head on coins of Pyrrhus and later Thessalian ones, R. Rochette p. 245. 415. vign. 15.

The hero on coins of iEtolia with the chlamys wrapped round his left arm, the kausia hanging on his neck, and lean- ing on a long knotty staff (Landon i, 34.), is also perhaps Meleager. Caly- donian boar-hunt (Philostr. the Yr. 15.), on vases from Volci, with many names of heroes, Bull. d. Inst. 1830. p. 4.
