9.Female figure, seated on a chair with hands resting on her knees. The right hand is wanting, and also the toes and front of the base, which seem to have been attached separately. The figure wears a long chiton and a mantle, which passes over the back of the shoulders, under the right arm, and in both directions across the left shoulder. Neither garment has indications of fold, and the edges are conventionally treated. The face, as far as can be seen, was full and thick. The hair falls in pointed tresses, the undulations of which are indicated in a conventional manner. The right ear is finished with care. This chair has no cushion, the drapery of the figure being seen under the arms.—Sacred Way, Branchidae.

On the left arm of the chair is the inscription: Εὔδημός με ἐποίε(ι)ν —"Eudemos made me."—Sacred Way, Branchidae.
