Tabulae Iliacae information


Tabula Iliaca Capitolina, Roman artwork, 1st century AD

The Tabulae Iliacae ("Iliadic tables", "Iliac tables" or "Iliac tablets"; singular Tabula Iliaca) are a collection of 22 stone plaques (pinakes), mostly of marble, with reliefs depicting scenes from Greek epic poetry, especially of the Iliad and the Trojan War.[1] They are all of early Imperial Roman date, and seem to have come from two Roman workshops, one of which seems to have been designed to satisfy a clientele of more modest aspirations.[2]
