Description

This base appears to be a reused element, as its mouldings and proportions are more consistent with earlier 2nd century AD prototypes. Two corners of the plinth are missing, seemingly intentionally cut for stylistic effect or to remove damaged edges. The other two corners are worn. Matches SW2a.
