This akroterion once crowned a tall marble shaft now in the National Archaeological Museum, Athens. The inscription states that the stele was erected to honor Timotheos and his son Nikon, both of the deme (political district) of Kephale. The front of the akroterion is decorated in relief with a palmette, the stems of which rise as spiral tendrils from bed of akanthos leaves. At the top is a flower that once had a painted stem.Free picture Marble akroterion of the grave monument of Timotheos and Nikon integrated with the OffiDocs web apps
