Anatolian-Persian Funerary stele 5th c BC

view map

The cart with his many-spoked wheels, the horses’ bound tails, the crown of the woman, the high boots of the men indicate Persian origin. The stele form, the tripod and the intimate seating of the man and woman are of Greek descent. The stele is from the 5th century BC, and belonged to a transporter.
