“ In the Museum at Naples are some of the form which we call “bell-shaped;” others are more like a Chinese gong. The bell, fig. 1 in the following woodcut, is a simple disk of bell-metal; it is represented in a painting as hanging from the branch of a tree (Bartoli, Sep. Ant. 13; cf. Bötticher, Baumcultus, 37) . Two bells are shown hanging to a tree on the left in the cut under OSCILLA on page 304. Figure. 2 represents a bell of the same form, but with a circular hole in the centre, and a clapper attached to it by a chain. ”
