Found in the House of the Poseidoniastai of Beryttos (Beirut), Delos
Traces of colour can be made out in many places. The nude goddess
Aphrodite attempts to fend off the goat-footed god Pan who makes erotic
advances to her. She holds her sandal threatingly in her right handm while
the winged god Eros comes to her air.
According to the inscription on the base, the group was
dedicated by Dionysios of Beryttos to his ancestral gods.
About 100 B.C.
