This volume brings together for the first time ancient Macedonian stone funerary monuments, or stelai, which feature figured representations of the deceased and their relatives. Taking as its focus the Classical and Hellenistic periods, it goes beyond artistic evaluation to consider the social history and wider meaning of the monuments.
