Terracotta onos (leg guard used in carding wool)
On each side, two quadrigae (four-horse chariots)
On the end, two draped figures
This implement connected with wool-working is also known as an epinetron. Although most of the preserved examples date to the late sixth and early fifth centuries B.C., their popularity returned during the last quarter of the fifth century B.C. The decoration usually refers to the activities of women.
