Summary edit

Description
  • English: The porphyry labrum (vessel or basin with an overhanging lip), possibily from a Roman thermal building, which is said to heve been reused in 526 AD as sarcophagus for king Theodoric in Ravenna, Italy. The manufact was subsequently reused after 540 AD by the new rulers, the Byzantines, in the facade of the so-called "Palace of Theodoric" in Ravenna, whence it was moved in 1913 to the Mausoleum of Theoderic in Ravenna, where it stands today.
  • Italiano: Il labrum (vasca da bagno con bordo arrotondato) in porfido, probabilmente da un edificio termale romano, che secondo la tradizione fu utilizzato come sarcofago per il re goto Teodorico nel 526 d.C. Reimpiegato dopo il 540 d.C. dai bizantini nella facciata del cosiddetto Palazzo di Teodorico a Ravenna è rimasto in quel punto fino al 1913, quando è stato spostato nella cella superiore del Mausoleo di Teodorico a Ravenna, dove si ammira oggi.
