| Reverse description | The sacred covered wagon (apene) of Artemis Ephesia, depicted in three-quarter perspective being drawn by two mules to the right, the canopied shrine-cart ornamented with columns and a pediment visible at its rear, evoking the ceremonial procession of the cult image from the city to the sacred grove at Ortygia. The Greek legend is arranged in two registers around the type, reading in the upper field and lower exergue. |
