Title: Highly recommended for archaeological & antiquarian studies.
Review: Profusely illustrated with 216 illustrations (including 108 photographs by Alison Frantz), Giesela Richter's major treatise on the antiquarian gravestone markers of Attica is an important and seminal work of exhaustive and impeccable scholarship. In her introduction Richter covers the origin of the Attica stele, the development of archaic Attica stele, the meaning and chronological development of the Sphinx on an Attica gravestones. Covering 610 to 500 B.C.E., Archaic Gravestones Of Attica is enhanced with epigraphical notes by Margherita Guarduci, a list of illustrations, a Museum Index, and a General Index. Highly recommended for archaeological and antiquarian studies reading lists and reference collections.
