After Twenty-One Centuries.

After twenty-onc centuries the re-
mains of the 800 Young Thebans. for
merlv the " Sacred Battalion" who fell
at the terrible battle of Cheronea have
now been dug mp. During the summer
excavations have been made around the
gigantic memorial lion which was
placed in the center of the field to com
memorate the deeds OF heroism of that
dark day. \ wall twenty-five yards in
length and fifteen yards III breadth was
first found beneath the soil. Within
this Enclosure at depth of four yards
lay the bones Of 1S5 Thebans, resting
side by side, ranging III rows OF forty,
each in the attitude in which he had
died. Seven such cGGs have been
found They are so placed that the
heads of those of the second rank re-
pose at the feet of the first. All bear
the marks of the blows which caused
their death. One of them has both
thighs pierced by thrusts of the spear;
a third has the skull terrible hacked; a
q fourth. whose head is wonderfully well
preserved. had the mouth still wide
open. rs If he breathed. This last will
he conveyed to the museum Of Antiqui-
ties at Athens. What is especially no.
ticeable about it is that the jaws possess
every tooth in perfect order, No wea.
