Abstract

Forty years after the publication of Nikolaus Himmelmann (1970) twelve of the thirty sarcophagi of the Archaeological Museum in Antakya are reviewed here. We offer brief descriptive records of the sarcophagi and a photographic documentation in many cases original. The typological and stylistic variety demonstrates the wide range of origins of these monuments: their high quality emphasizes the high economic standards of Antioch in imperial times.
