[1] This dedication to Asklepios was found during the excavations of the Asklepieion at Zea in Piraeus in the 1880s, along with another similar plaque (apparently uninscribed), and has not been seen since. Apparently, the relief depicted a snake, Asklepios’ sacred animal. On the sanctuary, see IG I³ 1081.
