Tomb Frieze with scenes from The Iliad (detail, see connected images). On the left Trojan Hector's body is being ritually dragged around Troy after he was killed by the Greek Achilles in retribution for killing Achilles friend Patroclus. Aphrodite and Apollo, however, preserve the body from corruption and mutilation. On the right, (other image) kneeling before Achilles who has turned his head away, is Priam, pleading for the return of his son Hector's body for burial with traditional Trojan funeral rites. | |
