| Reverse description | Full-length nude figure of Zeus Brontôn (the Thunderer), striding vigorously to the right in a dynamic pose, his right arm raised and brandishing a thunderbolt while his left hand holds an eagle. The deity's powerful, athletic form is rendered in the Hellenistic tradition, reflecting the local cult of Zeus Brontôn prominent in Phrygia. The surrounding field carries a multi-line Greek inscription recording the name and office of the supervising magistrate, Claudius Pollion, Asiarch of the Hierapolitans. |
