Description
This monument is the oldest of the Laconian hero reliefs. It depicts heroised deceased with distinct attributes of their removed status (throne, snake, receptable for offerings, worshippers). It is also suggested by inscriptions that the tumuli of Spartan heroes were crowned by reliefs of this kind.
