Note Burrell, Neokoroi, pp. 184, type 11, suggests the top temple is the neocorate temple, containing the emperor on horse, and that the other two may be the temples of Apollo and Athena. She also thought that on 'some examples a male figure can be seen to the right of the horseman', but this is not at all clear, and is perhaps a confusion with the horse's tail (there is only one die)77.
