Description
The over-life size Goddess is made from white marble. She is shown enthroned, holding a cornucopia as a symbol of fertility in her left hand. The missing head was veiled and possibly bore a turreted crown. Its identification as Tyche, the personification and patron of the Hellenized city, is not certain, but very likely. The monumental statue was created in a workshop in Asia minor and imported from there to Gadara.
