Chrysapha/Sparta (Greece), acquired from the Sabouroff Collection; marble, around 540 BC
This monument is the oldest of the Laconian hero reliefs. It depicts heroised deceased with distinct attributes of their removed status (throne, snake, receptacle for offerings, worshippers). It is also suggested by inscriptions that the tumuli of Spartan heroes were crowned by reliefs of this kind.
