Probably from Loukou, Arkadia. The relief depicts Asklepios, with
Hygiea in the background. Behind Asklepios are his sons Machaon and
Podaleirios, and his daughters Iaso, Akeso and Panakeia. A family of
worshippers is depicted at the left, leading a sacrificial pig.
Their maidservant carrying a hamper covered with a cloth can be seen
in the background.
