FOOTNOTES:

[2] The comprehensive description by Herodotus (vii. 61 sqq.) of the
costumes of the mercenaries of Xerxes is classical (see Rawlinson's
edition, iv. 56 sqq.). For archaeological parallels one may compare
the tombs of Rekhmire (15th cent. B.C.) and Harmhab (14th cent.) in
Egypt, the "Black Obelisk" of the Assyrian king Shalmaneser II. (9th
cent.) or his famous gates at Balawat (ed. W. Birch and T. G.
Pinches, and with critical description and plates by A. Billerbeck
and F. Delitzsch, _Beitrage z. Assyriologie_, vi. 1; Leipzig, 1908).

[3] Old Babylonian sculptors who represent the enemy as naked (Meyer
[see bibliography below], pp. 12, 70 seq., 116), conventionally
anticipate the usual treatment of the slain and wounded warriors.

also the Palestinian short coloured skirt with black tassels of the
14th century (_Zeit. f. Agypt. Sprache_, 1898, pp. 126 sqq.).

[5] See e.g. Ball, _Light from the East_, p. 36. On the Aegean dress
(Whether a development from spiral swathes or perhaps rather from a
series of skirts one above the other), see the discussion of the
Aegean loin-cloth by D. Mackenzie, _Annual of the British School at
Athens_, xii. 233-249 (esp. 242 seq.).

Septuagint, can perhaps be justified: R. Eisler, _Orient. Lit.
