*"[Kore 678] is attired in a travesty of the Ionic costume betraying faulty imitation ... The garments fit so closely to the body behind as to suggest absolute nudity. Here again we have unintelligent imitation."*—Guy Dickins, *Catalogue Of The Acropolis Museum*, 1912

This is my 3D scan of the Skulpturhalle Basel's late 19th-century plaster cast of the Athens [Acropolis Museum's](http://www.theacropolismuseum.gr/) Kore 678. The 6th-century BC marble figure was found west of the [Erechtheion](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erechtheion) in 1886.
The thin raised lines that trace the figure's contours are remnants from the 19th-century piece-mold technique used to make the plaster cast. These parting lines were [not considered defects](http://www.digitalsculpture.org/casts/felice/index.html), and expert mold-makers would leave them intact, thereby leaving a record of their work.
Kore 678 has been described as "Pseudo-Ionic" because its clothing appears to be an odd
