Sarkophag der Aurelia Botiane Demetria aus Perge

Öz

The sarcophagus found in the ancient city of Perge is exhibited in the Antalya Museum. The front and side faces of the sarcophagus are made in the form of Asia Minor columned sarcophagi. The back side is carved in Torre Nova type. In the main theme, the owner of the sarcophagus is depicted as the Philosopher, while the other figures are depicted as his students and listeners. On the reverse side, three scenes from the Trojan War are depicted. The city of Perge and the region of Pamphylia were prominent with sarcophagus production especially in the 2nd and 3rd centuries. This production was not confined to the region, but soon became known throughout the Roman world. With the increase in demand, production increased in the region and contributed to the growth of the regional economy. Today, research on material supply, production centres and artistic features are still ongoing. The sarcophagus is only one of these examples. In the article, the sarcophagus is introduced as well as the problems specific to it.
