Summary
[edit]DescriptionPlutarch at Delphi.jpg |
English: Bust believed to represent the Greek historian, biographer and essayist Plutarch. It is carved in Parian marble, dated to the 2nd or 3rd century AD. It is displayed in room XIV of the Archaeological Museum of Delphi, next to a herm with an engraved inscription that reads: ΔΕΛΦΟΙ ΧΑΙΡΩΝΕΥΣΙ ΝΟΜΟΥ ΠΛΟΥΤΑΡΧΟΝ ΕΘΗΚΑΝ ΤΟΙΣ ΑΜΦΙΚΤΙΟΝΩΝ ΔΕΛΦΟΙΣ ΠΕΙΘΟΜΕΝΟΙ (This votive with the bust of Plutarch was set up by the people of Delphi and the citizens of Chearonea in honour of the great author and priest of Apollo).
The bust and the herm were both uncovered near the southeast corner of the Temple of Apollo at Delphi. A present day copy with the inscription ΠΛΟΥΤΑΡΧΟΣ is located at Chaeronia, Plutarch's home town. It has been suggested that it could represent another philosopher of the Neoplatonist school.
