3D Model

Basamento moldurado y trasera de un gran monumentum sepulchrale probablemente rematado con pulvinos y con inscripción dedicatoria hoy perdida. De época alto-imperial romana, es el ejemplar mejor conservado de una tipología bien atestiguada en las Cinco Villas. Excavado en la década de 1980, puede verse in situ al Este del término de Biota, cerca de Farasdués. Seguramente serviría como sepulcro de incineración a un enclave rural contiguo tipo uilla o uicus.

Base with moulding and back panel of a large funerary monument. It was probably topped with puluini and it is likely to have read a dedication, today lost, in the inner side. Datable to the early imperial period, it is the best known example of this kind of funerary monument, well attested in the region of the Cinco Villas. It was found in the 1980s and can be seen, in situ, at the eastern edge of the town of Biota, near Farasdués. It might have contained cremated ashes from a nearby uilla or uicus.
