70 THE TOMB OF MAUSOLUS. stand Vitruvius when he says : " Those who are initiated in dif- ferent branches of knowledge have facility in acquiring all, from their connection with each other. On this account Pythios, one of the ancients, architect of the noble Temple of Minerva in Priene, says in his Commentaries that an architect should have that perfect knowledge of each art and science, which is not even acquired by the professors of any one in particular." A large claim, but I am at least convinced that in all great times architects have been stone-cutters. Printed at The Darikn Pkess, EJiiibnrgli.
