- Bulunduğu Yeri
- LA, in the top layer of later altar, not stratified.
- Tanım
- The tall relief is crisply cut and smoothed. Part of the lotus and the tip of a palmette are at the top l. The central leaf rises to a sharp median ridge, the l. leaf to a less marked one. Found in the top layer of LA 2, the late archaic piece may be a fragment of the decoration of the archaic altar. So far, no close parallel has been found, but the thin leaves and raised median ridges occur in the late 6th and early 5th C. B.C.
- Condition
Large-grained grayish white “local” marble.
Central and l. side lotus leaves completely preserved, only a bit of the leaf on r. Top l., only the top of palmette leaf preserved. Broken on all sides, hence exact function uncertain.
- Boyutlar
- P.L. 0.11; W. 0.135; Th. ca. 0.03; H. of lotus 0.005.
