Description
This funerary stele depicts an unknown woman. The deceased is portrayed seated with one hand on the cheek, holding a flower in the other. Next to her is a smaller figure that may be representing a child or a servant. Traces of reddish colours are preserved on the garments and the interior of the niche. The seated figures on funerary stelae have an attic origin, but the frontal portrayal of the figures is a Cypriot characteristic.
The stele was discovered in Amathus
