Oval gem with Kassandra kneeling at Palladion. Greek, Late Hellenistic Period, Late 1st century BC. Chalkis, Euboea, Greece. Length (withoutsetting): 21 mm (13/16 in.). Sard. 27.713. Francis Bartlett Donation of 1912. © 2013 Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.

Intaglio set in modern gold bezel and loop ring. The priestess Kassandra, daughter of king Priam and queen Hekuba, is shown nude with only a garment draped over her upper arm and right thigh. On her head there is a laurel wreath. With head bowed, she is kneeling in supplication clasping the Palladion, a figure of Athena, with her right hand. In her left hand, she holds a branch. Athena stands with one leg forward, wearing a long, belted garment (chiton) and a crested helmet. On her right arm she bears a shield decorated with Medusa’s head. She holds a spear across her left shoulder. Unfortunately for Kassandra, her prayers to Athena are in vain.

The Byblos figurines are approximately 2,000 statuettes found in ancient Phoenician temples in Lebanon, primarily in Byblos. Originally, many were armed with weapons. The male ones are interpreted to resemble Resheph, the Phoenician deity of war and plague (19th-18th century BCE)
Notice the similarity in design to ancient Egyptian.
