where in the Near East during the period (third-seventh
century) conveniently designated as Sasanian.
Such 'Sasanian' figured silks were particularly used as face-

the West was furnished also by gold coins imitated from
Byzantine issues which we found placed after the fashion of
the classical obolus in the mouth of the dead, while Persian
silver coins minted by Sasanian kings of the sixth century
covered their eyes. But a find of true artistic value which
may be mentioned here in conclusion, was Chinese. It con-

several panels and when intact forming a scroll. It had
evidently been deposited as a cherished possession of the
dead, to be broken later into pieces by a plunderer's hand.
