Fig. 80. a, Sardonyx Amygdaloid : Third Shaft-Grave, Mycenae ; b, on Ivory Bezel
of Silver Swivel Ring, c. 300 B.C., from Hellenistic Tome near Canea (Kydonia).
(The scene on b is copied from a in a reversed position as from an impression. Many
details are misinterpreted, as in the companion piece (p. 125, Fig. 79). The 8-shaped shield
of the man on the left of b is mis-shapen. The crest of the helmet of the original figure is con-
verted into some kind of SiVkos, raised, as a weapon, with both hands. The shield on the back
of the other figure is turned into a kind of seat and his attitude is that of sitting. The Minoan
' shorts' are omitted and his helmet is converted into a fetasos with long locks of hair falling
down behind. The seated figure wears a belt but no loin-clothing.)
