Relief slab depicting Hermes, Athena, Apollo and Artemis, in procession.

According to the museum's information labels "The sculptured plaques and the sphinx of this Hall were found in the harbour of Piraeus in the winter of 1930 - 31. They were part of the cargo of a wrecked ship, the destination of which had been Italy. [... they] derive from the same ancient Attic workshop and they were executed around the middle of the second century A.D. The sculptured plaques were intended for decoration of various buildings in Rome, where actually another plaque, deriving from the same workshop, has already been discovered."
Exhibited at the Archaeological Museum of Piraeus, Greece.
