In the second option, the embassy to be sent to the oracle is to be selected from all Athenians instead of the priestess and priest. In sum, it cannot be said whether this regulation for the priesthood

In spite of differing views about how the imagery on sarcophagi should be read, one commonly acknowledged goal in interpreting Greek myths on Roman sarcophagi is to identify [...] four horses, preceded by attendants [8] . It has been disputed whether these processions should be taken as evidence for an Etruscan prototype for the triumph, or whether they indicate a different kind [...] triumphal procession occurs infrequently.
