| Reverse description | Forepart (protome) of a stag bounding to the right, with the head turned back to the left in a lively, naturalistic pose; the animal's antlers are rendered with fine detail above. A tall palm tree with feathered fronds occupies the left field. The magistrate's name ΑΡΑΤΟΣ is inscribed in Greek letters along the right field, reading downward. The composition reflects the standard Ephesian reverse type of the early Classical period, combining civic and religious symbolism associated with the sanctuary of Artemis. |
