Reverse description Frontal view of a tetrastyle or distyle shrine with two columns supporting an arcuated lintel, framing a veiled goddess standing facing, her arms extended outward in an orans or welcoming gesture. At her feet to the left, a serpent is depicted, coiling upward — an attribute associated with chthonic or healing deities. The architectural setting is rendered with careful attention to the column shafts and arched pediment, consistent with the depiction of a local cult sanctuary. The civic ethnic legend ΚΙΔΡΑΜΗΝΩΝ is inscribed in the field, identifying the issuing community of Cidrama in Caria.
