Marble Column Drum at The British Museum, London
myminifactory
Sculptured marble column drum dating back to 325-350 BC stands proudly at the south-west corner of the later temple of Artemis in Ephesos. This remarkable relic is the best preserved example of its kind, showcasing a youthful winged Thanatos (death) in all its glory. Nearby, a draped woman and a figure of Hermes Psychopompos (leader of souls into the underworld) take center stage, accompanied by a standing woman and a seated man identified as Persephone and Plouton (Hades), gods of the underworld. The female figure has been tentatively linked to either Alkestis leaving the underworld or Eurydike, wife of Orpheos.
