Reverse description The river god Hermus reclines to the left in a languid pose typical of Hellenistic personification types, his body semi-draped. In his right hand he holds two corn-ears symbolic of the fertile Hermus valley, while his left arm supports a cornucopia representing abundance; his elbow rests upon an overturned urn from which water flows, the conventional attribute identifying him as a river deity. The surrounding Greek legend names the presiding magistrate and the issuing civic authority of Smyrna.
