Frieze From Theater

Frieze From Theater

View of a portion of the wonderfully preserved frieze that decorated the front of the skene in the theater at Perge. The seated deity (Artemis?) is in the center holding a cornucopia. To her lower right side is a representation of an altar with flames on it. On both sides are worshippers bringing bulls to be sacrificed.
