Description
Epidauros. Alkisti Papadimitriou (Ephorate of Antiquities of Argolida) reports on the discovery of a life-sized female marble statue, found on 16 December in the agora of Epidauros. The statue was found intact, apart from its head which probably broke when the statue fell.
The statue was discovered after the main excavation period at Epidauros this summer, when a small part of the back of the statue came to light following heavy rainfall. The pose and form of the statue is typical of either a married woman or of Hygeia, wife or daughter of Asklepios. The statue is thought to date to the Roman imperial period.
