Descripción

This is a long strip of relief decoration composed of three fragments and displayed side by side from left to right:

1. The main block on the left (about 6 girls in a procession)

Six young girls are dressed in light chitons and himinias and are marching to the right. Their robes are blown backward by the wind, clinging to their bodies, with layers of folds fluttering. This is a typical "wet garment treatment". The leftmost female has her arm outstretched, perhaps leading the way or holding an offering; at the end of the procession, there is also a short figure, possibly a attendant girl or a young child.

2. The middle fragment (naked young man + long-robed woman)

On the left is a naked young man (leaning sideways), and on the right is a woman wearing a long robe, raising her hand to gesture or give a direction. The young man represents the Athenian youth (ephebe) in the procession, and the woman might be a priestess or a goddess figure conducting the ritual.

3. The right fragment (2 women)

The two women have thick and vertical folds of clothing, continuing the procession line.
