Attic Grave Reliefs that Represent Women in the Dress of Isisby Elizabeth WaltersThe author investigates the appearance of a fashion in clothing, involving a knotted mantle worn across the chest, on many Attic stelae of the Roman period. She suggests that this style can be traced to Egyptian roots, and might have particularly been associated with a cult of Isis, popular among wealthy Athenians. The book presents a catalogue of the 106 known "Isis" reliefs from Attica and a review of all forms of evidence for the cult. xvi + 136 pp, 2 figs, 52 pls (Hesperia Supplement 22, The American School of Classical Studies at Athens 1988)
