2154. Eelief, perhaps votive, with Dionysos receiving a
libation. The central group consists of Dionysos and
a Maenad. The god is bearded, and wears a long sleeved
tunic and a mantle, which is wrapped about him. He
carries a thyrsus in the left hand, and holds out a two-
handled cup to the Maenad, who pours into it from a
jug. She wears a long tunic, with a diploidion girt at
the waist, and a small scarf over her shoulders. She
carries a thyrsus on her left shoulder. Immediately
behind the Maenad, a large crater stands on the ground.
At the two extremities are nude Satyrs, standing out-
wards, but each turning inwards, with one hand extended,
and with the other hand carrying a thyrsus.
