One man ties a ribbon around his head while another has his hair arranged in braids that at the nape of the neck. Some once held branches shown in colour. They have been interpreted as the elders carrying olive branches or as city officials or supervisors of religious Century BC frieze from the Parthenon, Athens, Greece.
