Macedonian grave stele
Abstract
The grave stele, index No 6937 of the Archaeological Museum of Thessaloniki, comes from the region of Thessaloniki and it dates from the Trajan period. On the relief representation of the facade it can be observed a mixture of the hellenistic tradition of Macedonia and the newly introduced Roman tendencies. The faces of the figures are general illustrative forms, which are repeated in other monuments of the region. Otherwise the relief is regulated by certain rules that enable the identification of the illustrated figures and the understanding of the general message of the representation.
