| Reverse description | Ajax the Lesser, hero of Opuntian Lokris, depicted striding vigorously to the right in a dynamic pose, nude save for a crested Corinthian helmet; he carries a large circular shield decorated with a serpent device on his left arm and holds a leafy branch or palm in his right hand. A six-pointed star appears in the lower field near his feet, serving as a subsidiary symbol. The ethnic legend ΟΠΟΝΤΙΩΝ is arranged around the figure in the field, reading partially on the left and upper right. The composition is bold and energetic, reflecting the high artistic standards of mid-fourth century BC Lokrian die-cutting. |
