Abstract

A trio of stelae with human representation appeared in  the central region of Asturias offers us a morphology comparable to the representations of the oicomorph inscriptions founded on this geographic area.  Maybe we must add another two items to these ones,  that present certain parallelism with the other ones: the first by the schematic figuration of the deceased and the second for the iconography surrounding the epigraphic field. All of them seem to express an evident connection between the sun representation and the Afterlife world.
