EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable piece of history - a copy of a gravestone from the Lycaonian colony in Konya, Turkey. The image is taken from Charles Texier's "Description de l'Asie Mineure faite par ordre du gouvernement Francais de 1833-37" published in Paris in 1847. The engraving depicts an awe-inspiring Lycaonian soldier, adorned with his armor and helmet, standing proudly beside his tombstone. With sword in hand and shield at his side, he exudes strength and valor. This classical illustration offers us a glimpse into the life of this ancient warrior. The intricate details on the gravestone are truly mesmerizing. From the finely crafted spear to the delicate engravings on the sarcophagus, every element tells a story of honor and remembrance. It serves as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Lycaonia. Through this image, we are transported back in time to witness not only the physical prowess but also the spiritual significance that these warriors held within their society. Their tombs were sacred spaces where their memory would be forever preserved. This print captures not just an archaeological artifact but also evokes emotions of admiration for those who came before us - brave souls who fought for their beliefs and left behind lasting legacies. It is indeed an extraordinary piece that invites contemplation about our own place in history and how we will be remembered when our time comes.
