Probably from a high relief sarcophagus, this head mostly likely comes from a panel showing a multi-figural dionysiac scene. According to J. Stubbe Ostergaard (Imperial Rome, Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, 1996, p. 93), there are about 430 sarcophagi with dionysiac scenes known, produced from about 130 A.D. to 300 A.D., with processions featuring Dionysos and Ariadne being the most common.
