Description
Summary:The epoch of Achaemenid rule over Phoenicia marked the beginning of a new prosperous time especially for Sidon. Ever since the 6th century BCE, not just the royal courts but also wealthy merchants commissioned imports of Greek marble originating initially from the Cycladic islands and in subsequent times from Attika. Around 380/360 BCE, the imported marble was utilized by Sidonians to build a new temple for Eshmun and to create sculptures of small children devoted to the healing god. Moreover, during that period iconographic and stylistic tendencies of Iran and Greece influenced the local cultural tradition.
