Early Hellenistic Period Height: 27 cm (10 5/8 in.) Probably from Tarentum South, Italy Cerberus faces right. He is straining at a lead that was once connected (in paint) to his three collars. He was undoubtedly being restrained by Herakles standing at the left, the imprint of his left foot remaining beside the paws on the ground area.
