A section of a votive relief that depicts Achilles and Thetis. The Greek hero Achilles is recognisable by his shield and helmet. He rides in a chariot with his mother Thetis. It was probably set up in a religious sanction, the names of the dedicators partially legible at the bottom of the relief;“… Lakrates and Gephes of the Achilleides.”Image from The J.
