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.
