[Sidenote: =180.=] The acroterion; (181) the figures beside it; (182) the lions, and (183) the Gryphons here exhibited, are repetitions of those of the west pediment. The acroterion, which originally surmounted the east pediment, was larger and more important than that of the west. (Cockerell, pl. 13.) The figures which stood on each side of the east acroterion, are shown by the surviving fragments to have been similar to those of the western end, but were on a rather larger scale. CASTS OF SCULPTURES FROM OLYMPIA. The temple of Zeus at Olympia was being built from about 470-455 B.C. (cf. Boetticher, _Olympia_, p. 247). It is certain that the metopes must have been placed in position during the process of construction. They should therefore probably be dated about 460 B.C. (Boetticher, p. 289). [Sidenote: =190.=] Cast of a metope, from the Temple of Zeus at Olympia. Heracles binding the Cretan Bull. The original is of marble. The greater part of this metope was discovered by the French expedition to the Morea, in 1829, and is now in the Louvre. The face and hind legs of the bull were discovered in the German excavations, and are now at Olympia. The parts first discovered are published in Overbeck, _Gr. Plast._, 3rd ed., I., p. 443. For the completed metope, see _Ausgrabungen zu Olympia_, V., pl. 17; Boetticher, _Olympia_, p. 279; Wolters, No. 274. [Sidenote: =191.=] Cast of a metope from the Temple of Zeus at Olympia. Heracles supports on his shoulders the vault of heaven, while the Titan Atlas brings him the golden apples of the Hesperides. Heracles has a folded cushion on his shoulders to make the burden easier; Atlas stands before him with six apples in his outstretched hands. A Hesperid or nymph stands behind and raises one hand as if to share the weight. The original is of marble, and is at Olympia, where it was discovered by the German excavators. _Ausgrabungen zu Olympia_, I., 26; _Athenische Mittheilungen_, I., pl. 11; Murray, II., pl. 13; Wolters, No. 280; Overbeck, _Gr. Plast._, 3rd ed., I., p. 445; Boetticher, _Olympia_, p. 285. (Boetticher's illustration is most nearly complete. That of Overbeck gives both hands of Atlas.) For the female head, see _Journ. of Hellen. Studies_, V., pl. 45. [Sidenote: =192.=]
