Reverse description Tetrastyle temple depicted in perspective, its four columns supporting an entablature and pediment rendered in the provincial die-cutting style of Lydia. Within the intercolumniation stands the cult figure of Artemis Anaïtis facing front, veiled and draped in a long chiton, her arms positioned in the canonical hieratic pose associated with this syncretistic deity worshipped at Hypaepa. The magistrate's legend encircles the design, recording the eponymous strategos Kerinthos in his fourth term of office. The architectural setting emphasizes the religious and civic importance of the Anaïtis sanctuary at Hypaepa.
