Abstract
This is an image of the remains of a mid 6th century chryselephantine votive statue to Apollo. The head and long, abstracted braids are mostly intact, along with the feet. Arranged around the statue are several carved ivory scenes from the Argonautic campaign, gold sheets, and a variety of jewelry.
