Adriano, for the burning of the marbles of the im- perial Forum: of the " Agosta ", fed with the spoils of the mausoleum of Augustus: and of " La Pigna ^ supplied with materials from the Baths of Agrippa and the temple of isis. There were temporary establish- ments opened near this or that edifice, which were abandoned as soon as the supply was exhausted " REMOVAL AND DESTRUCTION OF ANCIENT MARBLES 127 " I have myself, had no small experience in tracing the results of the operations of the lime...-burners: in fact none of the important excavations with which 1 have been connected either in Rome or on neighbouring sites, have failed to bring to light remains of one or more lime-kilns. I mention two examples as specially worthy of note. A lime-kiln was found in the palace of Tiberius on the Palatine hill by Rosa in 1869. It was filled to the brim with fine works of art, some calcined, some intact; among the latter, were the veiled bust of Claudius, now in the Museo delle Ther- me, a head of Nero: three carrying caryatides in " nero antico ": an exquisite little statuette of an ephebus in black basalt " Mn February 1883, in the excavations on the south side of the Atrium of Vesta a pile of mar- ble was found about 14 feet long.
