A group of marble statuettes in the ödemiş museum

Bu çalışma hazırlık aşamasında olduğumuz ve Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi Araştırma Fonundan destekli Ödemiş Müzesi Taş Eserleri Katalogu başlıklı çalışma kapsamında, ilk defa bilim dünyasına sunulan, bugün Ödemiş Müzesi deposunda korunan ve müze yenileme çalışmaları kapsamında yakın bir gelecekte teşhirde sergilenmesi düşünülen yedi adet heykelciği kapsamaktadır. Bu heykelcikler iki Venus, bir Hekate, bir Diana, bir Aesculapius, bir Kybele ve Ceres ya da Rahibe, tanrı ve tanrıçalarından oluşmaktadır. Bu çalışmayla heykelciklerin stilistik, plastik ve kronolojik özellikleri benzer örneklerle karşılaştırılarak eserlerin tarihlendirilmesi ve tanıtılması amaçlanmaktadır. Eserlerden Diananın baş ve kol bölümü, Venusün sol eli ile Kybelenin sağ eli ve Aesculapiusun sağ eli ile ayak bileklerinden sonraki bölümü kayıp olsa da, heykelciklerin sağlam ya da tamamlanmış olmaları eserleri kondisyon anlamında önemli kılmaktadır. Heykelciklerin büyük bir olasılıkla ya ev içibir kültte, ya da adak sunu olarak kullanıldıkları düşünülmektedir. Genel işçilik özellikleri itibariyle eserler M.S. 2.yyın ilk yarısına ya da 3. yy başına tarihlendirilmektedir.

Ödemiş müzesi’nden bir grup mermer heykelcik

This study comprises seven statuettes which are today preserved in the depot of the Museum of Ödemiş and which, within the framework of the museum’s renovation works, are planned to be displayed among the museum exhibits in the near future. As part of a study entitled The Stone Artifacts of the Ödemiş Museum, supported by the University of Dokuz Eylül Research Fund and now in the preparatory stages, they are here presented for the first time to the scholarly world. These statuettes consist of one god and goddesses: two Venuses, one Hecate, one Diana, one Aesculapius, one Cybele and a Ceres or Priestess. This study aims to present and date the statuettes by comparing their stylistic, plastic and chronological characteristics with similar examples. Although the head and arm section of Diana, the left hand of the second Venus and the right hand of Cybele and, of Aesculapius, the right hand of and the portion below his ankles are lost, the fact that the statuettes are otherwise intact or completed makes them important from the standpoint of condition 1. It is thought that the statuettes were very probably used either in a domestic cult or as votive offerings. They are dated to within the first half of the 2nd or beginning of the 3rd centuries A.D. on the basis of their general workmanship characteristics. Keywords: Ödemiş Museum, Marble Statuette, Domestic Cult, Votive Offering
