Abstract
In this study new sculptures from Antinoupolis are presented, coming from excavation investigations or found in the urban area. The group is a particularly heterogeneous and includes a fragment attributable to Antinoo, fragments of labra and sculptures different in terms of quality and nature. Although it is a limited number, the sculptures presented offer important indications from various points of view. In fact, they confirm the remarkable cultural level of Antinoupolis and document the diffusion of imported marbles in Middle Egypt in the imperial age.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
