A herm-a stone pillar with the head of Hermes and male genitals attached, is shown from the side on this amphora.  These objects often stood on ancient roadsides as mile-markers and served to mark property lines.  The herm shown here stands in front of an altar and has been decorated with wreaths and floral sprays.</schema:description><schema:artForm>Vessels</schema:artForm><schema:width>33.5000000000 Centimeter</schema:width><schema:url>http://collections.mfa.org/objects/153623/rdf</schema:url></schema:VisualArtwork></rdf:RDF>
