 A review of "Les Statues Ptolémaïques du Sarapieion de Memphis" noted they were probably build in the 3rd Century with limestone and stucco, some standing others sitting.Rowe and Rees 1956 suggested that the theme was similar to Plato's Academy mosaic.Statues were attributed to, Pindar (seated, identified per a graffiti), an inscription at the back of his chair reads Dionysi, Demetrius of Phalerum, Orphic, aux oiseaux, Hesiode, Homer seated in the center (head was recovered), Protagoras, Thales, Heraclite, Platon (per inscription), and Aristote.
