Of the east pediment only five figures were found, sufficiently complete to be restored. The fragments leave no doubt that the composition was as a whole analogous to that of the west pediment, and that the subject was a battle for the body of a fallen warrior, fought in the presence of Athenè. The clue to the subject represented is given by the figure of Heracles, and archaeologists are almost unanimous in thinking that the scene is a battle in the war which Telamon of Aegina, aided by Heracles, waged against Laomedon, King of Troy (cf. Apollodorus, ii., 6, 3, 4). The arrangement is nearly that of Cockerell. The Heracles, however, has been placed on the right side of the pediment, because the left side of the statue is the most carefully finished, and was therefore intended to be seen. Restorations of the East Pediment. (1) With 10 figures; wounded warrior as restored. Prachov, _Mon. dell' Inst._, IX., pl. 57. (2) With parts of 12 figures; wounded warrior not as restored. Cockerell, supplementary plate; Müller, _Denkmaeler_, I., pl. 8; Blouet, III., pl. 58, fig. 1; Murray, I., pl. 7. For two heads from this pediment, see Brunn, _Denkmaeler_, No. 121. The figures beginning with the left end of the pediment are the following:-- [Sidenote: =175.=] Warrior lying down, supported by his arm, within the handles of his shield. He is wounded below the right breast. Restored:--Crest, part of visor, four fingers of left hand, four toes of left foot; right leg from the middle of the thigh. Cockerell, p. 32, pl. 14, No. 4; Blouet, III., pl. 59, fig. 2. [Sidenote: =176.=] Warrior advancing, with a shield on the left arm, and a lance (?) in the right hand. Restored:--Head, hands, right hip; most of shield, Cockerell, p. 32, pl. 14, No. 2; Blouet, III., pl. 59, fig. 1; Brunn, _Denkmaeler_, No. 28. [Sidenote: =177.=] Wounded warrior fallen backwards on his shield. Restored:--Head, arms, shield, right leg, left leg from the knee. The correctness of the restoration has been doubted. The left side is most corroded by the atmosphere, and would therefore seem to have been uppermost. In that case the figure must have resembled that of the fallen warrior in the centre of the west pediment. It is thus drawn by Cockerell, in a supplementary plate. Engraved as restored, Cockerell, pl. 14, No. 1; Blouet, III., pl. 61, fig. 1. [Sidenote: =178.=] Figure of a youth leaning forward, to draw away the fallen warrior. Restored:--Nose, arms, pubis, most of right foot, and left foot; Cockerell, pl. 14, No. 3; Blouet, III., pl. 61, fig. 2; Brunn, _Denkmaeler_, No. 26. [Sidenote: =179.=] Heracles kneeling, and drawing his bow. He wears the lion's skin on his head, and had a quiver on the left side.
