Bacchic Dancers

Bacchic Dancers, from Samandağı, second to third century AD, inv. 950-951. The dancers carry tyrsoses and cymbals. A tyrsos is a staff of reeds, covered with ivy and vines. Cymbals are, well, cymbals.

These frames are from a larger set, with Perseus and Andromeda to their left. See there.
