Descripción
This slab was found at Mantineia, Arkadin. Together with 3 other slabs, it formed the revetment of a pedestal for the stature of the Delian trinity (Leto, Apollon and Artemis), or of an altar.
On this slab is depicted the music contest between Apollon and Marsyas. Apollon sits on a rock holding a kithara, and Marsyas stands on the right playing the flute. Between them stands the Scythian who will punish the insolent Marsyas, after his defeat, with a horrible death.
