Meleager Head Identified.

A very interesting discussion regarding the Greek original of Meleager in the Fogg Museum, was concluded Saturday by investigation. The torso and head were found in 1895 near Rome close to the place where the Meleager now in the Berlin Museum was discovered, and the statue placed in the Museum some time ago. The members of the Fine Arts Department were not all agreed that the head originally belonged to the torso. There was a theory that the first head had been broken off and the present one carved at a later date to replace it. To settle the question the head was removed on Saturday afternoon and an investigation made by Professor Moore, Professor Mark and Mr. Palache, instructor in minerology, who examined the crystal formation and lines of cleavage with a microscope and pronounced the head and body to have been carved from the same piece.
