Miletus (Turkey), reused in the "Goths' Hall". From the division of finds 1905; marble, circa 530 BC Due to her petite stature, the enthroned figure was undoubtedly not a grave statue but a votive offering. The roughly smoothed rear side suggests that it was positioned in front of a wall or within a Naiskos (a temple-like edifice). In the 3rd century AD, it was incorporated into a wall alongside other sculptures. This object is part of "Scan The World".
