Reverse description The personification of Demos, the civic assembly, stands facing with head turned to the left. In his raised right hand he holds ears of grain, symbolising the prosperity of the community, while his left hand rests upon a long transverse sceptre. The figure is rendered in a simple provincial style with minimal anatomical detail. The ethnic legend ΔΗΜΟϹ ΑΛΙΗΝΩΝ is disposed in the field around the standing figure, identifying this as a civic issue of the people of Alia in Phrygia.
