Description
This is a funerary stele of an unknown woman. The deceased person is portrayed within a frame, in a standing frontal position. She is dressed in a chiton (tunic) and himation (veil), which is passed over the head and covers the entire body. The right arm protrudes from the veil and is bent on the chest, while she is holding an indiscriminate object in the left hand. Some perforations on her head indicate that a metal wreath may have been attached to the head. The stele was discovered in Pera.
