Marble ciborium with Greek inscription

Marble ciborium with Greek inscription

Cut from a single block of marble, an inscription reads: "In fulfillment of a vow and for the salvation of the most glorious Anastasia." The style of the ciborium supports a date of the 6th century, which has allowed it to be identified with a noble woman, named Anastasia, from the court of Justinian who died in 558.
