Abstract:

There is no evidence in either Greece or Macedon in the archaic and classical periods that the throne functioned as a symbol of royalty. Thrones were for the gods and their priests. Only the king of Persia used a royal throne and even had portable thrones for his campaigns. This paper argues that after his conquest of the Persian Empire, Alexander the Great adopted the throne as a royal symbol; after his death, his throne became a token of his invisible presence. Philip III Arrhidaeus is known to have used a royal throne after his return to Macedonia. By implication, the marble thrones found i

Hyperspectral data has characteristics of multiple bands and continuous, large amount of data, redundancy, and non-destructive. These characteristics make it possible to use hyperspectral data to study cultural relics. In this paper, the hyperspectral imaging technology is adopted to recognize the bottom images of an ancient tomb located in Shanxi province. There are many black remains on the bottom surface of the tomb, which are suspected to be some meaningful texts or paintings.

The Rosetta Stone was important in deciphering the meaning of the hieroglyphs inscribed on the walls of temples and tombs of the ancient Egyptians. Thanks to the interest and perseverance of Thomas Young and Jean-François Champollion we now know what was kept in those texts with figures of plants, animals and other symbols ""meaningless"" for those who did not know their secrets. Here we summarize part of that history that now allows us to communicate with a past of more than 3000 years ago.

In this incursion into the Neolithic world, we will study two objects discovered in the tombs of the priestesses of Mostonga and Tărtăria.

Abstract:

The large-scale tomb made in ancient society is a space for the dead and a symbol of the power of descendants, and it can be said that it is one of the factors that best reveal people's notions of death at the time. Goguryeo's representative tombs play an important role in revealing its history. The construction period of the Goguryeo tomb has been revealed through writings on the protagonist, the contents of the tomb murals, bowls, and roof tiles. However, among the numerous tombs of Goguryeo discovered so far, very few tombs agree on the main character or the timing of the construction. Gogu

This study discusses the symbolism of the rabbit statue on the base of a celadon incense burner with an openwork auspicious-character design lid in the National Museum of Korea. Chapter II analyzes the overall design of the incense burner, pointing out that although the rabbit statue is small in size, it is a three-dimensional figure with detailed carving of each part of the body and inlaid techniques used to express the eyes, making it an important component that embodies artistry beyond a simple base. Chapter III explores the spectrum of perceptions of the rabbit by examining rabbit sculptur

A new analysis of the tomb's structure reveals that it was based on a simple geometric shape measurable by a 13.1 m unit of length. The locations of particular motifs and decorated surfaces are shown to conform to the spatial relationships evident in the tomb's form.

As a result of the mound-shaped monument review, it can be found in seven places from the upstream station of the Yeongsangang River to the downstream station.

The tomb size reflected the social status of the dead. And a powerful “king” built a big tumulus as a symbol of power. However, elite tumuli were abandoned along with the maturity of power structures. We consider that such a phenomenon can also be seen in the Eur

Although art historians had originally regarded the strongly Catholic depiction of Mary in captivity, the so-called Sheffield portrait, as the model for the effigy, for more than a century the consensus is that it was based on one of Nicholas Hilliard’s miniature portraits.
