This statue, whose other elements, the torso and the horse, are preserved in the Acropolis Museum in Athens, is dated to 560-520 BC; it therefore belongs to the so-called "archaic" period (6th to 6th century BC), marked by the techniques and conventions received from the East and transmitted by the Greek cities of Asia Minor and the islands.
Date: 6th century BC
