^{page 10 note c} A. Goldschmidt, Die Kirchenthür des heiligen Ambrosius in Mailand. Strasburg, 1902. Professor Goldschmidt believes the door to date from the close of the fourth century, and thinks that it was made in Italy to the special order of St. Ambrose. Professor Strzygowski (Byzantinische Zeitschrift, 1902, xi. 666)Google Scholar, while accepting the early date, holds the work to be more probably of Syrian origin imported into Italy perhaps at the time of the Crusades. He argues that the removal of every head in the sculptured figures points to deliberate mutilation, and suggests that the doors must have at one time been in a country under Arab domination. But to this it has been replied that a monument so mutilated would not have been thought worth transporting to the West.

^{page 17 note b} The classical book on Byzantine illuminated MSS. is Professor Kondakoff's Histoire de l'art byzantin considéré principalement dans les miniatures (Paris, 1886)Google Scholar; but the most succinct account is to be found in the chapters on Byzantine art by M. Gabriel Millet in the new Histoire générale de l'art, edited by M. André Michel (see especially vol. i. pp. 207 ff.). Here due stress is laid upon the enduring influence exerted by the early illuminated MSS. in the form of rolls, which must have been in existence as early as the fourth century.

Millet has kindly reminded me, by Jean Clédat, Le Monastère et le nécropole de Baouît, Mémoires… de l'Institut Français d'archéologie orientate du Caire. 1904, xii. pl. xii. ff. Here the Anointing, the Introduction to Saul, and the Fight with Goliath are in common with the treasure; while David and his brothers before Samuel, and David playing before Saul, are in common with the series on the doors.

^{page 18 note e} See above, p. 5. This casket has a series of thirteen scenes, only three of which correspond to those of the Kyrenia treasure.

^{page 18 note f} It has sometimes been assumed that because no existing illuminated Greek Psalter is earlier than the ninth century, the period with which the surviving series begins, therefore the illustration of the Psalms in MSS. appeared at that time as something new. Such a view surely rests too exclusively upon negative evidence. (See the review of Tikkanen's book on the Psalter, in Byzantinische Zeitschrift, vii. (1898), 253)Google Scholar. Moreover internal evidence derived from the illustrated Psalters themselves points, like that of the monuments above described, to the existence of an early David cycle. On this subject see Millet, as above, p. 225.

^{page 20 note c} Tikkanen, , as above, 8 ffGoogle Scholar, who describes it as the “monastic theological” illustration of the Psalms. Like Kondakoff he notes its polemical aspect, adapted to a popular propaganda, and its close connection with church history. The oldest existing Byzantine Psalter in this style is that known as the Chludoff Psalter, originally brought from Mount Athos, and now at Moscow; it has been published by Kondakoff, who assigns it to the ninth century. Others of almost equal antiquity are the Codex Pantokratoros, still on Mount Athos (Brockhaus, Die Kunst in den Athos Klostern, 1891, pp. 177 ff and pl. xvii.-xx.; Uspensky, First voyage to the Monasteries of Mount Athos, 1846. Part 2); and the Greek MS. No. 20, in the Bibliothèque Rationale.
