An anthropomorphic sarcophagus. I guess it is of a type found at Sidon, where there are two styles, one closer to the Egyptian style, another closer to a Greek style. This one seems Greek, I say so because of the sarcophagi I know from the Istanbul museum, you can check for yourself. See for instance this one.
