Abstract
This image shows a detail of the Lycian Sarcophagus. The stone sarcophagus is from Sidon and it dates from the late 5th century BCE. It is adorned with bas-relief carvings. This detail view shows a short end of the sarcophagus that features two centaurs fighting over a deer on the base of the sarcophagus. It was photographed at the Istanbul Archaeological Museums in Istanbul, Turkey, in 2011.
