Grave Stone in the Form of a Lekythos
400-300 BC
Marble
Greek, Attic Found in Cleveland Museum of Art
“This Attic grave marker is in the form of a lekythos, a type of vase commonly left as a grave offering. On it is a scene in relief with inscriptions. At the right a bearded man wearing a himation (cloak), whose name “Timophon” is inscribed, clasps hands with a woman wearing a himation and a mantle with the inscribed name “Lysistrate”. Below and between them is a gril identified by an inscription as “Kleippe”. At the left is an unidentified woman, likely a nurse, holding an infant. The scene probably commemorates Lysistrate’s death in childbirth. Her newborn child apperently survived.”
