Provenance

Place of origin
Lipara
Provenance found
Found in 1985 in the excavation of trench XXIII (Monteleone property). Stele was in its original location and corresponds to tomb 2172. Chiselling of the upper part of the stele seems to refer to the construction, at a higher level, of a cocciopesto floor, in a phase of reuse of the area in the late imperial age
