"The term is applied in architecture to figures of either sex carrying on their heads baskets, containing edibles or material for sacrifices, such as the Caryatide figures of the Erechtheum." This is either an extremely archaic usage or confusion on the part of the original author, are there references for this?

"Those represented in the Panathenaic frieze of the Parthenon carry vases on their shoulders." Even making allowances for the limitations of Victorian scholarship this is shocking rubbish.
