Behind her a beardless youth carring a pitcher and a stick and bearded male carrying a staff and branches approach. In the lower register a woman holding a phiale and a scepter (Aphrodite?) sits right in front of an omphalos (hemispherical, unornamented). She is appoached by a youth wearing high boots, who holds two torches, one turned downward (variously interpreted as Iakchos, Eumolpos, or Eubouleus). Behind him is a dancing woman with a kernos/plemochoe(?) on her head, and a bearded male. Above, in the pediment, are a woman with kernos/plemochoe (?) on her head, an auletris, and two males. The dedicatory inscription is inscribed on the lower margin. – Inscriptions: Geweiht von Niinnion.
