III.THE AUTISTIC ENGRAVERS OF TERINA ANDTHE SIGNATURE OF EVAENETOS ON ITSLATER DIDRACHM DIES.(See Plates III.-V.)1. THE WORKS OF 4> AND n : ATTIC INFLUENCESAND THE SCHOOL OF ZEUXIS.THE study of the coinage of Terina has been recentlyplaced on a new basis by the admirable and exhaustivemonograph of Dr. Regling, which in many ways may beregarded as a model for this kind of research. 1 Thegreater accessibility of the material secured by thiswork makes the occasion favourable for reconsideringsome of the current views concerning the master-piecesof the Terinaean Mint, and their place in contemporaryart history, both numismatic and general.Moreover, an additional motive for attempting thishas been supplied by the interesting discoveryto whichattention will be directed in the second Section of this1 " Terina," Sechsundsechzigstes Programm zum Winckelmannsfeste,von Kurt Kegling (Berlin, 1906). Dr. Kegling's work has been thesubject of a singular attack on the part of two of his colleagues, Messrs.H. von Fritze and H. Gaebler in Nomisma (i. pp. 14 seqq.).For examplesof obliquity of archaeological judgment, and for the preposterouschronological conclusions in which these writers have thus involvedthemselves, reference may be made to the note at the end of thispaper.
