Columella des Apollonios, marble, chiseled, marble, total: height: 83.3 cm; diameter: 19.9 cm (shaft); diameter: 22.4 cm, inscription: on shaft: , Grave monument, grave equipment, Greek script, early Hellenistic, Greek antiquity, The small marble column, the lower end of which was roughly hewn for insertion into the earth, represents a type of grave monument for which Cicero (De legibus 2, 66) has handed down the name 'columella'. Beside this simpler type, there were examples with a flat cut off end, which could be embedded into a base. The Hamburg grave column shows no other decoration than a simple round bar (torus) about 5 cm below the upper edge. A three-line, rather irregularly executed Greek inscription gives the name, patronymic and origin of the deceased: Apollonios, son of Sousarion, comes from Kios, a city on the Propontis, the later Prusias. The grave column is certainly from the time after the grave-luxus prohibition of Demetrios of Phaleron in 317 B.C. The letter forms of the inscription allow a dating into the early 3rd century B.C.
