Two round knobs project at base of nose flanked by two horn-like projections at right and one or two at left. The two at left are mostly lost, but drillwork outlining them marks their location. The two at right extend forward, the two at left are positioned farther back on head, so both pairs would have been visible. Two round projections also emerge from top of nose. Long jaw opened, teeth bared, tongue extends forward, thickening before it extends from mouth. Strong modeling marks furrowed cheeks, arched eyebrow and round, beady eye. Skin pulled back in comma-shaped patterns above and below mouth. In back, upper and lower parts of jaw smoothed, but middle portion separated from background by a series of channels made by a running drill. Tool marks indicate that the drill was applied from back of jaw toward front. Hence, it would have been possible to carve the ketos if it occurred to the right of a high-relief head. Piece probably attached to one of sections of theater façade, and so it would have projected considerably from the background with monster’s head facing to our left. Working of head much more detailed than snakes of Gigantomachy reliefs. Thus, it probably belongs to pair of high-relief heads, where a sea monster would form an attributive function comparable to dolphins. One of dolphins similarly has a lot of detail, and it projects about 0.167-0.17 from background plane. Ketos projects ca. 0.147 from architectural block. The difference of ca. 0.20 may have been taken up by the drapery or hair from which it emerged. The nearly rectangular shape of the joining surface (ca. 0.04 x 0.06) suggests that the ketos’s neck once was attached to a neck segment that emerged from the figure’s hair or drapery. This ketos may go with the head of the Nereid (or Aphrodite), Corinth IX, iii, p. 85, no. 9. See bust from Aphrodisias that has been recognized as a Nereid, which has one dolphin and two ketoi, Corinth IX, iii, p. 91, note 156, LIMC VI, p. 820, no. 486, s.v. Nereides (Icard-Gianolio, Szabados). With the addition of the ketos, the identification of the Corinth bust as a Nereid is strengthened. Cf. also S-666, Corinth IX, iii, p. 86, no. 10K, which may come from the neck of another sea monster. MS also checked the piece against S-3595, catalogue 10 H, and it doesn’t belong. Head and neck show heavy weathering and water erosion along upper and outer surfaces. A white gash across the mouth probably results from the excavator’s pick.","Corinth","Hadrianic (MS)","Nereid","SEA MONSTER (KETOS)","Corinth:Image:bw 1966 007 16::/Corinth/Photos/negatives/year_roll/1966_007/1966_st_007_016.jpg::1800::1183","","Object" "Agora:Object:I 286","I 286","","1933; 24 February 1934; 7 February 1935; 14 February 1935; 22 February 1935; 12 April 1935; 13 December 1935","","","Fragment Θ 26 a), from right side of inscribed block; fine picked on one side, rough picked on the back.; ; Fragment Κ 115 b), back and left side preserved.

Some of the main fragments were used in the filling of the south tower of the gate in the late Roman Fortification (Q 13); other main fragments came from modern house walls in this neighborhood, no doubt extracted from the Fortification; and a few were found in modern constructions 100m. and more to the north and west of the tower. One fragment (EM 564) is reported to have come from a considerable distance to the east, east of the Tower of the Winds.; The stele appears to have stood originally in front of the terrace of the Stoa of Attalos, about opposite Pier 5 from the south, and to have been broken up after the Herulian invasion for use as building material in the late Roman Fortification. A quantity of small fragments and chips from it, opposite Pier 5, presumably left behind when the stele was broken up for building use.; ; ADDENDA 2023:I 286 was found with IL 2281 (Lead Dowel); ; Cf.
