A procession of sixteen elderly men in himatia. They converse while walking or standing, o they turn to look behind them. One man ties a ribbon around his head, while another has his hair arranged in braids that cross at the nape of the neck. Some once held branches shown in colour. They have been interpreted as the thallophoroi or as city officials.
