Kizilbel: An Archaic Painted Tomb Chamber in Northern Lycia

No Customer Reviews

Documenting the investigation of a late sixth-century B.C. tumulus on the western Anatolian plain of Elmali, this volume also records the efforts to restore and conserve the extensive paintings of the stone-built inner chamber. In addition to discussion of its excavation and architecture, the tomb's vibrantly painted and symbolically complex murals of warriors, Gorgons, banquets, hunting, and seafaring are described in detail and their cultural context considered in terms of style, technique, and iconography.
