Reverse description A portable edicule or tetrastyle shrine with four columns enclosing a frontal seated figure of Tyche, the city goddess of Antioch, with the river god Orontes kneeling or swimming at her feet in the traditional Eutychides-derived composition. Above the shrine, a ram leaps to the right, referencing the zodiacal sign of Aries associated with Antioch. Carry-bars are typically visible at the base of the shrine. The field is divided by the legend, with Δ and Ε denoting the four eparchies, and S C (Senatus Consulto) appearing below.
