Khnum holds a whip in his right hand. The inscription says that this votive figure was dedicated by King Psametik.

 

As in large scale Egyptian granite standing or striding figures, there is no space between the legs, and the arms are kept close to the body. The headdress has broken off.

One of many city-states to include the hero Herakles–here shown beardless and wearing his lion-skin–on its coinage, Erythrae lies on the Ionian coast, near the island of Chios. The reverse features the inscriptions ΕΡΥ (for Erythrae) and ΔΙΟΝΥΣΙΟΣ, likely the name of a magistrate. Also present are a small owl and kantharos (wine cup), plus the club and bow case of Herakles.
