Samos (Greece), sanctuary of Hera; from the division of finds of the excavation 1914; marble; around 560 BC
Statues of lavishly dressed young girls (korai) were place on tombs or consecrated to the gods. This kore can be recognised as an offering due to the inscription: "Cheramyes has erected me, an extremely beautiful statue, for the goddess." She holds a hare in her hand as a votive offering.
