Description
This unusual stele, one of the earliest known funerary monuments, was erected by Amphalkes on the grave of Dermys and Kitylos, as is recorded in the inscription. The two dead youths, possibly brothers, are shown embracing one another. Dermys stands on the left, Kitylos on the right. At the top, the stele would have been crowned originally by a seated Sphinx. This is the work of a Boeotian workshop.
