Damascus april 2009 7817.jpg

view map

A funerary triclinium, decorated in high haut relief, one sees two Palmerien, two cousins holding a cup in front, a seated Palmerian, and centrally a standing youth. From the Hypogeum of Malcou (?), Palmyra.

That is the text at the museum, I understand triclinium strictly is the name of the room where guests would recline on couches for dinner, what is obviously meant is: a group in such a room.
