Das Denkmal und Mausoleum von Philopappos (Athen). C. 1865 – 2020

The [Philopappos Monument](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philopappos_Monument) is an ancient funerary monument located on Philopappos Hill, southwest of the Acropolis. It was built in the 2nd century AD in honor of Gaius Julius Antiochus Epiphanes Philopappos, a prince of the Kingdom of Commagene and a prominent Roman senator and benefactor of Athens who died in 116 AD.

The monument measures 9.80 by 9.30 metres (32.2 ft × 30.5 ft), and contained Philopappos‘ burial chamber. Only two-thirds of the façade remains. The tomb chamber behind the façade is completely destroyed except for the base.

It is a two-story structure, supported by a base. On the lower level there is a frieze representing Philopappos as a consul, riding on a chariot and led by lictors. The upper level shows statues of three men: of Antiochus IV on the left, of Philopappos in the centre and of Seleucus I Nicator, now lost, on the right.
