The four legs of the chair are decorated with a design which appears to be developed from the lotus bud, and is seen on Assyrian reliefs. On the back of the top rail of the chair is the late inscription: Νίκη Γλαύκου, which is either "Nikè, daughter of Glaukos," or, perhaps, a formula of the Christian period, "Victory of Glaukos!"—Sacred Way, Branchidae.

13.Male figure seated on a chair, with left hand resting on left knee, and right hand, with palm turned upwards, by the right thigh. The head and the right hand are wanting. The figure wears a chiton, and a mantle which passes round the body under the right arm, and passes in both directions over the left shoulder, so as to hang down in folds before the knees. The artist has attempted to render the fine folds of the upper part of the chiton, and has decorated the front legs of the chair as in No. 12. The statue has been broken and repaired in ancient times with lead cramps.—Sacred Way, Branchidae.
