Socle de statue divinité féminine

Dijon (21) - Musée archéologique

[VIDE]

Thin parallelepiped base with two-line engraved inscription of the goddess Sirona. Only the divinity's two feet are preserved: spread apart, they appear in a slightly open position. The right foot is set back. This configuration seems suited to the pose of the female figure (inv. 2017.1.1). The deity is wearing sandals with a strap held between the thumb and the second toe, like long shoes. To the rear, on her left side, is a carved altar, of which only the base remains. (M.-A. Widehen, 2015)
