For Epiphany: Part 2

This carving of the adoration of the Magi is from a 4th ( yes, that's 4th, not 14th ) century sarcophagus found in the catacomb of St. Agnes. It's in the Pio-Clementine Museum, at the Vatican.

It's held up pretty well considering the 1,700 or so years since the carving.

Must have been sheltered from the elements.
