Carved face from a tomb, Sydima, Antalya, Turkey
Carved face of a woman with a solemn expression wearing a headband from the underside of the slab topping a large temple-type monumental Lycian tomb at the acropolis at Sydima, a Lycian site at Dorduga village, Fethiye, Antalya, Turkey. The tomb is raised on two steps and originally had 2 columns. The top slab has beautiful carved reliefs of human heads, believed to be women, and flowers, which were originally painted. The ruins at Sydima date from the earliest classical Lycian period around the 5th century BC, although many of the remaining structures are Roman. Picture by Manuel Cohen
