Description: A stone relief from Roman London in the 3rd century A.D. It was found re-used as building material at Blackfriars. The Museum caption reads, "Limestone relief depicting four female figures sitting on a bench holding bread and fruit, a suckling baby, a dog and a basket of fruit. They are probably portraying the three native mother goddesses although the fourth figure cannot be explained".
