Description: Artemis Bendis (on the right, wearing a Phrygian cap, a short tunic, high boots and an animal skin) and her followers, maybe athletes taking part in the torch relay race in honour of the goddess. Marble votive relief, made in Athens, ca. 400-375 BC. Said to be from Piraeus, more probably from the area of a sanctuary of Bendis on the Mounichia Hill.
