Antioufty of Death Masks.

Although there is no mention OF
death masks in the works of Homer or
in any of the later classics, modern ex-
plorers have satisfied themselves that
in the early burials of all nations 1t
was the custom to cover the heads and
bodies of the dead with sheets or gold
so pliable that they took the impress
Of the form, and not infrequently,
when in the course Of centuries the
embalmed flesh had shriveled or fallen
away, the gold retained the exact cast
of the features. Schliemann found a
number of bodies covered with large
masks of gold plate in repousse work,
several Of which have been reproduced
by means of engraving in his My
cenae." and he asserts that there can
he no doubt whatever that each one
of these represents the likeness of the
deceased person whose face it covered.
