Note on a Roman Sarcophagus in the Campo Santo, Pisa

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  24 September 2012

Extract

In the course of an article, contributed to this Journal, entitled ‘A Roman Sarcophagus at Pawlowsk and its Fellows,’ I mentioned a ‘garland-sarcophagus’ in the Campo Santo at Pisa as being probably still earlier than our first definitely dated ‘garland-monument’ of the second century A.D., namely the Lateran sarcophagus from the Hadrianic tomb near the Porta Viminalis. The garland-style of the Pisan sarcophagus I was not then in a position to discuss, having neither seen the original nor been able to procure a photograph of it. I have now done both, and hope that, in view of the comparative scarcity of dated sarcophagi, its value as an approximately dated piece may justify its publication here.
