LEIGHTON, P.R.A. 24 THE DAPHNEPHORIA c/^^ri^ A triumphal procession held every ninth year at Thebes in honour of Apollo and to commemorate a victory of the Thebans over tlie Aeolians of Arne. Its name was derived from the laurel branches carried by those who took part in the festival ; the laurel, or more properly the bay, beiDg sacred to Apollo. The procession is led by a youthful priest, called the Daphmphoros (the laurel bearer); before him a boy, his kinsman, bears a symbolic standard, called the Kope, and indicating the sun, moon and stars. Behind the Daphnephoros three lads carry a trophy of golden armour; they are followed by the choir of Tliebau maidens, who, crowned with laurels and each bearing a laurel branch, sing the hymn to Apollo under the direction of the chorus leader. The procession is closed by boys carrying votive tripods. In the valley below is seen the town of Thebes. — See Proclus, ' Chrestomath.' 5 ft. 7 in. by 17 ft.
