| Reverse description | The xoanon-type cult statue of Samian Hera, depicted standing frontally in rigid hieratic pose, wearing a tall kalathos (polos) upon her head and adorned with hanging fillets. The goddess holds a patera in each outstretched hand, and the composition is flanked on either side by a standing peacock, the sacred bird of Hera, facing inward toward the deity. The ethnic legend ϹΑΜΙΩΝ appears in the field, identifying the issuing civic authority of Samos. |
