A Sarcophagus Lid in the Terme Museum, Rome

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  24 September 2012

Extract

“Data sunt ipsis quoque fata sepulcris!” It is a pleasure to be able to inform the readers of the Roman Journal that an important monument, which they have known only as described and inadequately illustrated in works of a century ago, is still extant and available for study; and moreover to be able to publish it in photograph (plates VI and VII).
