These statues were carried away by the Persians, when Xerxes entered Athens B. C. 480 but the Athenians had others made by Critias. The original statues were found by Alexander the Great at Susa, and sent back to Athens by him, or, according to Pausanias, by Antiochus. They were erected in the Ceramicus near those which had been made to replace them, and were seen both by Arrian and Pausanias. Hippias, the son of Pisistratus, was expelled from Athens B. C. 510, which fixes approximately the period of Antenor. (arrian, Anabasis, iii. 16. Vii. 19. Pausanias, i. 8. Pliny, Hist. Nat. Xxxiv. R. W. Jun.
