Description
Cybele was in love with a young man named Attis. Through jealousy, she made him go mad, forced him to castrate himself and transformed him into a pine tree. This representation of Attis is very close to that of the queen of the Amazons, Hippolyta, represented on a relief of the Labours of Heracles.
