There is a preserved tang at the bottom to fit into a base. The epistyle block is inscribed with the deceased name, and a longer prose inscription is found at the top of the painted scene. The painted scene is framed by the pilasters of the naiskos form and depicts a standing young man on the left and a seated man on the right. The standing man, dressed in a short red chiton and a white himation draped over his left shoulder, grasps the right hand of the seated man, most likely Stratonikos the deceased. The seated man is swathed in a himation that covers his legs. Both men wear footwear. The bench on which the man sits is topped by a cushion. A small black herm (Hermes Chthonios) is drawn at the bottom of the right pilaster of the naiskos. An inscription is carved shallowly on the epistyle in letters painted black. Under the epistyle is carved a metrical inscription in smaller letters.

So bones have arrived as a unholy care for your mother and sister (Tina Salowey).
