It would have been installed by Vitti\u2019s mother to honour her child through the centuries. Expressed in a moving and poetic language, the epigram indicates that the bereaved mother commissioned a great poet to compose it, a fact that reflects the high level of her intellectual cultivation.<\/p>\n<p>The monument in its entirety would have been an imposing structure built of Parian marble that would have manifested the affluence of Vitti\u2019s family in the society of Amorgos in the 5th century BC.<\/p>\n\n  <!-- Rich Text Editor Start -->\n  <\/div>\n\n                  <\/div>\n    <div class=\"right sticky\">\n              \n          <\/div>\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":18835,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-66179","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 -
