While the inscription is relatively well preserved, the sculpted motif above it is much less so. Only the right front of the figure is partially visible. The right leg of a seated figure is visible. To his right (to the left of the relief) we can also see the remains of a wide-necked amphora from which water flows. As the inscription refers to Apollo, we can imagine that it is he who is represented in this relief.
There are few representations of Apollo with a flowing urn (with water pouring out), which generally refers to the symbolism of a spring - perhaps the Semois in the case of Arlon. In other images of Apollo as a spring god, he is sometimes standing, sometimes lying down, and sometimes seated. In the latter case, the god is almost always holding a lyre or zither.
Apollo holding a zither in his left knee. Altar from the Vendeuvres excavations (FR) (from Espérandieu, n. 1539).
Due to the poor state of preservation of the sculpture, the identity of the figure is not certain. It is probably Apollo, the god of the spring of the Semois.
