Επιτύμβιοι βωμοί από τη Θράκη

Abstract

The author adding to the already known example of a sepulchlar altar in the collection of Komotini (OJh. 39 (1952) Beiblatt, I squ.) some other examples from Thrace, thinks that their type must have been transplanted there, as well as to Macedonia (Pella), from the Samos-Milet district, where it is very early at home. He repeats that the roman sepulchral altars of the same type are not an «italiotic» invention, but they continue the older ionian type.
