Description
Bibliography

It was found in 1957 at the Sanctuary of the Nymphe. The goddess sits on a winged-back throne the wings of which are today broken. Her hands rest on her knees and she has her feet on a footstool. She is draped in chiton and a stephane adorns her head. The hair is arranged around the forehead in a series of relief locks.

The figurine's surface retains traces of white slip and red colour.
