El epitafio griego de Sabino, con datación seléucida
Abstract
En estas páginas interpretamos un monumento funerario inédito, muy probablemente de Seleucia del Éufrates (Zeugma), que circula desde hace décadas en el mercado del arte anticuario. Presenta la particularidad de estar fechado por el calendario Seléucida. Proponemos que el epitafio del joven Sabino se data en el mes de febrero del año 39 de nuestra Era.
