View of a sarcophagus found at Aizanoi.  Its roof is stylistically like the roofs of Greek Temples—note the acroteria at the corners and the lions' heads. The scene depicted on its side is the mythical battle of the Amazons (females) vs. the Greeks.

The sarcophagus is on display in the museum in Kütahya.
