In which is endeavoured to be proved, that though it most probably there stands for the Name of a Coin, yet that there is no reason for supposing it stamped with any Figure at all, and therefore, not with that of a Lamb in particular. II. On the signification of the word Hermes. To which is explained the Origin of the Custom among the Greeks, of erecting Stones called Hepmai; together with some other Particulars, relating to the Mythology of that People.
