Terracotta statuette of a seated goddess
The figure must be a goddess because she wears a high polos (headdress) and is seated on a thronelike chair with a footstool. She wears a peplos, a simple woolen garment. Although her long narrow face and wiglike hair appear early in style, her legs are clearly modeled underneath the drapery in a manner that did not appear in major sculpture until the late fifth century B.C. The type of clay used in this figure indicates that it was made in Corinth. Traces of white slip and red paint remain.
