Hellenistische Bürgerinnen aus Kleinasien. Weibliche Gewandstatuen in ihrem antiken Kontext

Women statues in costumes from Hellenistic period are related with honouring the women citizens. Two-thirds of the statues recovered come from Anatolia. Though all the statues depict the women standing, their poses and the drapes of the chiton and chimation they wear are the main criteria for their categorization. The author groups the statues into 6 main categories along with some unique examples and explores the honourings through inscriptions and the status of women in the family and in the social life. 230 pp with 24 b/w plates.
