| Description: | Broken at the back. A small block, smooth dressed at sides, top and below. In the top is a deep circular cutting, tapering slightly towards the bottom. At either side of the cutting, in the top, is a small drilled hole. On the front is a relief, much battered: at the right a bearded man, draped, facing left, reclines on a couch, in front of which is a table. In his left arm he holds a huge cornucopia, or drinking horn; in his outstretched right hand, apparently a patera. At the foot of the couch stands a nude youth, his body in front view, his weight on his left leg. He faces the bearded man. His right arm was held up, head high, his left hangs at his side. Beside him is a large amphora, or perhaps a volute krater. Pentelic marble. | |
| Context: | Trial Trench 1, against Valerian Wall. Tile filled earth at west end: late Roman. | |
