A Marble Relief from the African Tripolis

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  18 October 2013

Extract

The sculptured slab represented on Pl. XIV. was found recently somewhere in the hills about Tarhuna, namely, in the eastern section of the line of high ground which lies about a day's journey from the sea behind the coast desert between Oea (Tripoli) and Leptis Magna (Khoms or Lebda). It was seen in private possession at Khoms in 1896 by Mr. H. Swainson Cowper, has since been acquired by him, and is now in his house, Yew Field Castle, Outgate, Ambleside. He has figured and briefly described it already in his recent account of his journeys in the province of Tripoli; but has kindly permitted the reproduction of it here, from a fresh photograph, and with a rather fuller commentary, in the preparation of which a number of valuable references and suggestions have been very kindly placed at the disposal of the writer by M. P. Perdrizet, Member of the French School of Archæology in Athens.
