Description
Bibliography

Warrior figurine mended of fragments. It was found in 1957 at the Sanctuary of the Nymphe. The man, who sits with open legs and arms, was riding horseback. He is naked and on the head has a Corinthian-type helmet. In his right raised hand he would most likely have held a spear.

All over the surface retained are traces of white slip and red colour.
