Description
Content (description)
In the centre stands a bearded soldier, wearing a corselet and cloak, and makes an offering at a tall slender altar, which is hung with garlands. A draped boy stands on left of the altar holding a disk, while a bearded man stands with a bull in the background. From left approaches a young soldier in cloak and helmet, holding a sword. On left and right bigae drive outwards, each trampling two bodies on the ground. A soldier stands on far left and right, his back turned to the viewer. On far right is a leafy tree.
