Funerary stele made of poros stone, with relief chariot scene. The spirals in the upper panel may represent waves, thus indicating the costal location of the scene in the lower panel. The standing charioteer pulls at the reins, while a second figure, who holds a weapon in his left hand, is depicted in front of the chariot. Mycenae, Grave Circle A, Grave V, 16th century BC
