Wellcome Images images@wellcome.ac.uk http://wellcomeimages.org Relief in the form of a shrine, offering of Archinos to Amphiaraos (according to the inscription below the figures). On the left Amphiaraos, standing, is treating the r. shoulder of a young man. The latter is represented again, at the back, asleep on a bed, while the snake glides over his shoulder. On the edge a third scene: the dedication of a stele, with relief by Archinos to the shrine of the god. High in the centre of the cornice two apotropaic eyes. Found in the precint of Amphiaraos at Oropos. A splendid example of its kind, noteworthy for its representation of successive episodes.

Wellcome Images images@wellcome.ac.uk http://wellcomeimages.org This terracotta male torso is dissected to show the internal organs of the abdomen, especially the intestines and guts. This votive was reputedly excavated from Isola Farnese, near Rome, Italy, sometime during 1871-1900. Objects like this were left at healing sanctuaries and other religious sites as offerings to gods such as Asklepios, the Greco-Roman god of medicine. It was intended either to indicate the part of the body that needed help or as thanks for a cure. Made from bronze or terracotta, as in this case, a large range of different votive body parts were made and offered up in their thousands. Although it originated in earlier cultures, this practice became very popular in Roman Italy – particularly between the 400s and 100s BCE. maker: Unknown maker Place made: Roman Republic and Empire made: 200 BCE - 200 CE Published: - Copyrighted work available under Creative Commons Attribution only licence CC BY 4.0 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/https://thevotivesproject.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/wellcome-foot-science-museum-a634921.jpgL0058428 Votive left foot, Roman, 200 BCE-200 CEL0058428 Votive left foot, Roman, 200 BCE-200 CE Credit: Science Museum, London.
