These markers commemorating the dead were traditionally placed along roads near the entrances to cities, where they could be seen by all. Although the monuments vary greatly in style, quality and elaboration, they reach across the millennia speaking the universal language of human grief.This illustrated catalogue presents fifty-nine Greek funerary monuments in the Antiquities collection of the Getty Museum.
