A sarcophagus known as the “Priestess’s Sarcophagus,” made of white marble and decorated with a female figure in high relief. She wears a long pleated robe cinched at the bottom by two large crossed wings. A veil topped with a falcon’s head covers her head in the style of the Klaft. In her right hand she holds a dove, and in her left, an incense burner (H. 93 cm, L. 193 cm, W. 67 cm; Necropolis of Saint Monica, Carthage; 3rd century BCE; Carthage Museum).
