Found on Rheneia. The monument has the form of a naiskos with two Corinthian half-columns supporting an epistyle and a frieze with triglyphs and metopes, surmounted by dentiles and a pediment. A standing man wearing a himation shakes hands with a seated woman dressed in a chiton and a himation, that also covers her head. Next to her seat is a little girl. The scene is completed by a male figure at the right, wearing a himation. In the corner is a young slave. The names of the main figures are inscribed lower down. They are Mysta daughter of Mnaseos of Laodikeia and two Alexandrians, Apollonios son of Apollonios and Apollonios son of Dionysios.
