Sculptured marble column drum 325-350 BC Found at the south-west corner of the later temple of Artemis at Ephesos This is the best preserved of the column drums carved in relief. It shows a youthful winged Thanatos (death), a draped woman, a figure of Hermes Psychopompos (leader of souls into the underworld), a standing woman and a seated man, identified as Persephone and Plouton (Hades), gods of the underworld. The female figure has been tentatively identified as either Alkestis leaving the underworld, or Eurydike, wife of Orpheos. This object is part of "Scan The World".
