What is Funerary Stele of Shem/Antipatros Analysis about?

The article discusses the funerary stele of the Phoenician Shem/Antipatros, analyzing its symbolic relief and Greek epigram through a comparative approach with Semitic backgrounds. It presents a new commentary on the epigram, suggesting that certain Greek terms may be adaptations of Semitic expressions. The stele, dated to the early 3rd century B.C., features a complex iconography involving a lion, a naked figure, and a ship, which has puzzled scholars and prompted various interpretations.
