Note 276 — Chapter VII · MUSIC AND PLASTIC
Charles Francis Atkinson translation
See Vol. II, p. 110. The aspect of the streets of Old Egypt may have been very similar to this, if we can draw conclusions from tesseræ discovered in Cnossus (see H. Bossert, Alt Kreta (1921), T. 14). And the Pylon is an undoubted and genuine façade. (Such tesseræ, bearing pictures of windowed houses, are illustrated in Art. “Ægean Civilization,” Ency. Brit., XI Edition, Vol. I, p. 251, plate IV, fig. 1.—Tr.).
