Greek folk-songs from the Turkish provinces of Greece Albania, Thessaly, (not yet wholly free) and Macedonia: literal and metrical translationsthough under new Christian names ; and really keeping still the Feast of the Kabeiri, though calling it that of the ' Twelve Apostles." And still the characteristic Songs of Samo- thrace are about Gods of the Underworld about Charon, who is really a Kabeirian God; though, in name, he appears to be connected with the Egyptian Horus. 56 And most curious, perhaps, of all not only is an ancient round church at Salonica, built by Constantine, and now the mosque of Sultan Osman, said to be on the site of a 53 NONNUS, Dionys. xiv. 23, xxix. 193 ; and see the other authorities quoted in the above'-cited article, pp. 847 8. 54 PLUT., Alex. 2. 55 See CONZE, Archeologische
