EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "A Testament to Faith and Eternal Peace: The Roman Funerary Stele of Prisco" 2. Discover the profound significance of this ancient artifact, the Roman funerary stele of Prisco, dating back to the 4th century AD in Italy. This exquisite piece, now housed at the Baths of Diocletian, part of the National Roman Museum in Rome, Italy, is a testament to the early Christian era and its rich iconography. 3. The inscription on the stele reads "In Pace," a Latin phrase meaning "in peace," indicating the deceased's hope for eternal rest. The Christian symbolism of the dove and olive branch further emphasizes this wish for peace and harmony in the afterlife. 4. The monogram of Constantine the Great, the first Christian Roman Emperor, is prominently displayed on the stele. The use of the monogram, which consists of the Greek chi-rho (ΧΡ) symbol, is a powerful reminder of the growing influence of Christianity during this period. 5. The intricate relief carvings on the stele, including the numerals III and X, are believed to represent the age of Prisco at the time of his death. This detail underscores the importance of recording personal information in funerary art during ancient times. 6. As you gaze upon this piece, imagine the Roman world of the 4th century AD, where Christianity was gaining ground amidst the Roman Empire. The Roman funerary stele of Prisco stands as a powerful symbol of the blending of ancient Roman traditions and the emerging Christian faith. 7. The intricate design, historical significance, and spiritual depth of this artifact make it an essential addition to any collection of ancient art, European history, or Christian iconography. 8.
