Özet
This study focuses on a figural vessel lid fragment unearthed during the 2024 excavations at the Perge stadium. The relief scene on the lid depicts damnatio ad bestias, a form of execution involving wild animals that was characteristic of the Roman Imperial and Late Antique periods. This find not only reflects local interpretations of Roman visual culture but also makes significant contributions to our understanding of spectacle culture in Pamphylia during Late Antiquity
