Peter Ruggendorfer
This current volume of Forschungen in Ephesos presents the concluding results of the recent archaeological and art-historical investigations at the monumental tomb at Belevi in the hinterland of Ephesus. It is preceded by C. Praschniker – M. Theuer, Das Mausoleum von Belevi, FiE 6 (Wien 1979) which covers the research at the Mausoleum during the 1930s and 1970s. The date of the Mausoleum can be fixed now accumulative between 310 and 280/70 BC. Following the interpretation of references regarding the monument’s dedication and the sources for the historical events, Antigonos I. Monophthalmos is recognised as the newly identified personality to whom the Mausoleum at Belevi belonged.
