这篇文章试图总结的结果（1）这些挖掘进行的希腊土地在1924年，没有及时报告，我的帐户印在最后一卷的杂志，和（2）1925年的挖掘，其中报告已来到手在9月底之前。我希望今后每年都能在账目中采用这一制度。美国学派的各种活动包括在科林斯遗址、阿尔戈斯神庙和皮奥夏的Eutresis的发掘。我在一年前的报告中曾描述过尼米亚和弗留斯两个战场的战役，但在1925年夏天，没有进行进一步的工作。在哥林多，多亏了T. L.剪切，清理剧院的艰巨任务取得了实质性的进展，在管弦乐队的南侧，泥土的存款深度被证明是12米;在赛季结束前，超过5000吨的碎片被移到四分之一英里外的垃圾场。在西方的洞穴的座位被证明是所有被摧毁，但一个显着的发现，在墙的形式，最初约。2·80米高，环绕着管弦乐队。这是清除被保存到1·70米的高度，并在壁画中描绘了真人大小的人物与狮子搏斗的场景。一个战士，在与一只从左边向他扑来的狮子战斗时，穿着一件紫色的长内衣，膝盖处系着一件白色外套;另一个穿着一件短衣服，前面垂下来，露出腿到臀部，穿着白色凉鞋;其他人物，穿着各种各样的衣服，也是战斗的狮子，出现在其他场景中。
This article attempts to summarise the results (1) of those excavations carried out in Greek lands in 1924 of which no report was available in time for my account printed in the last volume of the Journal, and (2) of the excavations of 1925 of which reports had come to hand before the end of September. This system will be followed in the accounts which I hope to contribute annually henceforward. American School The varied activities of the American School included excavations at the sites of Corinth, the Argive Heraeum, and Eutresis in Boeotia. At Nemea and Phlius, the opening campaigns at which sites were described in my report of a year ago, no further work was done in the summer of 1925. At Corinth, thanks to a generous subsidy by, and the personal enterprise of, Professor T. L. Shear, substantial progress was made with the Herculean task of clearing the theatre, where, on the south side of the orchestra, the depth of the deposit of earth proved to be 12 metres; before the season closed, over 5000 tons of debris had been removed to a dump a quarter of a mile away. In the west of the cavea the seats proved to be all destroyed, but a remarkable discovery was made, in the form of a wall, originally ca. 2·80 metres high, surrounding the orchestra. This where cleared was preserved to a height of 1·70 m., and was painted in fresco with scenes of life-sized figures engaged in combat with lions. One combatant, in action with a lion which charges him from the left, is clad in a long purple under-garment, with a white over-garment fastened at the knee; another wears a short garment which hangs down in front, leaving the legs bare to the hips, and white sandals; other figures, variously clad, and also fighting lions, appear in other scenes.
