Note 1305 — Chapter X · ORPHIC MYSTERIES.
Reading edition
I have already discussed the liknon in connection with the fragment of Sophocles in the Classical Review, vol. VIII. p. 270. In the Thorwaldsen collection at Copenhagen there is a relief closely analogous to that in fig. 148. A liknon is erected on a column: above it appears a large goat’s head, see Schreiber, Reliefbilder, Taf. CXI. 1.
