Category:Garland sarcophagus in Konuralp Müzesi

The museum houses a spectacular sarcophagus of a type, called garland sarcophagi. That was the stylistic group of early sarcophagi in the second century, a custom of decoration that was previously used on ash chests and grave altars. It used to stand unprotected, resulting in high contrast. It later was put in a protected space, still in the garden.
