There are copious illustration, which have been moved to fall on paragraph breaks. Full page illustrations, which were paginated, often fall in mid-paragraph in the original, and so would have been disruptive when moved. The pagination of the illustrations has therefore been removed, and that of the text may contain gaps. Some larger illustrations were rotated in mid-page. These are presented as full page illustrations in the correct orientation. A number of captions refer to the image as ‘Actual Size’. This is difficult to substantiate and should be taken with a grain of salt. Where references to illustrations are not local to the referent, links are provided for ease of navigation. Minor errors, attributable to the printer, have been corrected. Please see the transcriber’s note at the end of this text for details regarding the handling of any textual issues encountered during its preparation. Any corrections are indicated using an underline highlight. Placing the cursor over the correction will produce the original text in a small popup. Any corrections are indicated as hyperlinks, which will navigate the reader to the corresponding entry in the corrections table in the note at the end of the text. Choragic Monument of Lysikrates.
