Öz

Ankara Anadolu Medeniyetleri Müzesi’ne 2017 yılında
teslim edilmiş olan ve literatürde “monopodia” olarak adlandırılan eser
gurubuna giren mermerden yapılmış figürlü masa ayağı, bugüne kadar yayınlanmış
olan benzer diğer figürlü masa ayakları arasında hem işçiliği hem de
korunmuşluğu açısından öne çıkmaktadır. Roma Dönemi’ne ait olan bu mermer masa
ayağı, Anadolu’daki Roma Dönemi yaşantısının günümüze kadar ulaşmış estetik
anlayışını ve bu anlayışı yansıtan lüks düzeydeki mobilyaları günümüze taşıyan
örnekler arasındadır. Masa ayağının ön yüzünde konu olarak seçilen figürün
alegorik ve senkrtik anlatım ise bu örneği; Anadolu, Ege Adaları ve Kıta
Yunanistan başta olmak üzere Akdeniz coğrafyasında bugüne kadar ulaşmış diğer
mermer figürlü masa ayaklarının arasında daha da öne çıkartacak niteliktedir.
