I.—Excavations At Sparta, 1907: § 5.—The Early Bronzes

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  18 October 2013

Extract

The bronze objects found at the temple of Artemis Orthia and (some few) on the Acropolis, by the site of the Chalkioikos, are interesting, perhaps not so much in themselves, as because the well stratified mass of pottery in which they lay gives at last fairly certain evidence for their chronological classification. Unfortunately they are in very bad condition.

The two small bosses represent the figure-of-eight twist, and the large bosses are, I think, spirals, not concentric circles.
