Description: In her left hand she holds a double cornucopia, the top of the outer piece is missing (cf Pitts 1979, pl 18, 89). Her right hand probably supported a rudder. The goddess is clothed in a full-length sleeveless tunic and a cloak which is clasped on the left shoulder and passes below her righ arm. She stands on a small flat base. Her hair is arranged in a style similar to that of 4261. The figure is classical in style and was almost certainly imported from the continent. (Crummy 1983). Pitts says local product. Finely featured face, details of clothes and cornucopia. Very small piece. Back less detailed than front, although the folds of the gown are shown at the base. Hair in a bun at the nape of the neck.
