Description
This gravestone bears the inscription: "Nikon's son, Thrason". The form of this sculpture in relief leads us to suggest it belonged to a broader funerary monument. The man depicted playing with what seems to be a dog, may be a portait of the deceased (Nikon's son) or simply a model symbolizing the life of the deceased.
