Funerary stele depicting a lion Last quarter of the 2nd century Gunékeui (near Gédiz, in KizilDagh), Marble. Musée du Cinquantenraire (Brussels, Belgium). Made with ReMake and ReCap Pro from AutoDesk. The central panel represents a closed door with two richly molded doors and a lock whose part of g. imitates a leaf of vine. The lower cassettes are decorated with a stocky vase (urceus), as well as a door ring. The jamb is decorated with plant motifs and is itself included in a smooth frame whose horizontal banner contains the epitaph: “Marcos Sestullios Sévéros honored Mr. Sestullios Pindaros, his foster father”. In the pediment in the shape of a half-hexagon, is inscribed a half-circle, hollowed out in a niche. A squatting lion, an animal of Cybele, was to scare the grave robbers. Since the Sestulii managed domains in the Altintash Plain, the stele probably comes from this area. For more updates, please consider to follow me on Twitter at @GeoffreyMarchal.
