3rd Extra Credit OpportunityAncient Cypriot Limestone Sculpture and Self-Taught Sculptors in the
Ancient World
The island of Cyprus in antiquity is known for many things, among them an international reputation for concentrated religious activity, and quarries of soft limestone. These two features come together in the survival of tens of thousands sculptural offerings on the island: diverse in style and form, locally made and locally dedicated. This lecture will explore the unique experience of worship in ancient Cyprus with a particular focus on these dedications. I argue that the soft limestone was easily carved, so the sculptors required little training. By examining many works of limestone sculpture, we’ll see the styles, techniques and themes of these artists reflect an environment similar to the self-taught artists working in more contemporary times..

The Tomb of Tiberius Claudius Eutychus, Ostia, ca. 110-115
A good example of a standard tomb type that developed on the roads leading out of Ostia and Rome. It has exposed brick work like that used in houses, markets and warehouses. It very often consists of a facade with a doorway leading into a barrel vaulted chamber.
