Text Appearing Before Image:
Funeral Column. two cippi, or funeral columns, one erected to Arria, a daughterprobably, the other to Arrius, his eldest son. These are sur-mounted by hemispheres, the flat side presented to the road—a form of monument not uncommon at Pompeii; and onewhich, when the hinder part is carved in imitation of hair,with dependent tresses, it is difficult to see without thinkingof that antidote to sentiment, a barbers block. A low walldivides these monuments from the principal one; but thatthey all belong to one family is made evident by an inscrip-tion placed directly under this partition :—ARKIAE . M . F .
