Ship Sarcophagus

The Ship Sarcophagus, also known as the Sarcophagus au Navire, is a Roman era sarcophagus found by Georges Contenau in 1913 in Magharet Abloun, a necropolis containing the remains of Phoenician kings and notables in the south of Sidon in modern-day Lebanon.

The sarcophagus has been dated to the 2nd century CE.

[1][2] It is considered the most important of all the sarcophagi discovered by Contenau in Sidon.
