Description

Style is similar to SE6a, however the proportions of this base are more elongated. The execution of its mouldings are also more schematic and flatter. A dowel hole is visible on the top surface, measuring 7.5 cm in diameter and 8 cm deep. Also on the top surface is a block monogram, measuring 11 x 14cm. It possibly reads "Κρῖσπος", and matches three other monograms found on columns in the South Stoa.
