Dating back to the 2nd century, this ceremonial burial object is on display at the National Museum in Rome, offering a glimpse into ancient Roman civilization and mythology. The vibrant colors of this artwork bring to life the mythical creatures depicted on its surface.

The presence of Dionysus (also known as Bacchus), the god of wine and revelry, adds an element of divine mystique to this magnificent piece. Measuring cm Dixon by cm Dixon in size, this artifact holds immense historical significance. It serves as a testament to the Romans' belief in an afterlife and their elaborate funeral rituals.
