This relief depicts two marine beings, a centaur and a nereid, in vivid detail. In later Greek mythology, ichthyocentaurs emerged as a distinct species of aquatic deities with the torso of humans, the front legs of horses, fish tails, and distinctive lobster-claw antlers adorning their heads. Nereids were mythological sea nymphs known for their enchanting beauty and mystical powers.
