Upper part of the marble stele (grave marker) of Kallidemos
Inscribed below the molding, Kallidemos, the son of Kalliades
The back of the stele was cut down in modern times.
The akroterion is decorated with a double palmette flanked by two half palmettes, all rising from spiral tendrils set in a bed of acanthus leaves. Bell-like flowers are suspended from the volutes of the central palmette, and a four-petaled flower is carved at the top. The simple shaft is decorated with double eight-petaled rosettes.
