There are four bands on the second frieze of the Situla of Pania, which show hoplites (citizen soldiers of ancient Greek city-states) and weeping women, a warrior without shield, beasts and monsters, and imaginary animals.
The second frieze shows common motifs of departure for war, followed by hoplites performing a salute and weeping women (with long braids and their arms over their chests). After that there is a warrior without his shield performing a funerary dance and a horseman. The third band is decorated with beasts and monsters, employing eastern motifs. On the final band there are further imaginary animals. Hoplites (HOP-lytes) (Ancient Greek: ) were citizen-soldiers of Ancient Greek city-states who were primarily armed with spears and shields.
