The Kroisos Kouros ({{lang-grc|κοῦρος}}) is a marble kouros from Anavyssos in Attica which functioned as a grave marker for a fallen young warrior named Kroisos ({{lang|grc|Κροῖσος}}).[1][2] OverviewThe free-standing sculpture strides forward with the "archaic smile" playing slightly on his face. The sculpture is dated to c. 540–515 BC and stands 1.95 meters high.[3] It is now situated in the National Archaeological Museum of Athens (inv. no. 3851). The inscription on the base of the statue reads:
"Stop and show pity beside the marker of Kroisos, dead, whom, when he was in the front ranks, raging Ares destroyed". The Kroisos Kouros is central to two ongoing archeological debates: first, whether kouroi represented specific young men or were generic representations of idealized archetypes which might not actually resemble a specific person commemorated, and thus are symbolic representations embodying the ideal of the male warrior en promáchois (ἐν προμάχοις), "in the front line" of battle, not naturalistic ones; and second the authenticity of the Getty kouros, which bears a falsified provenance and displays a suspicious similarity to the Kroisos kouros.[4] References1. ^{{cite book|author=Fred Kleiner|title=Gardner's Art through the Ages: The Western Perspective|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=YQsM6U_Iyf0C&pg=PA113|date=1 January 2013|publisher=Cengage Learning|isbn=978-1-133-95481-1|pages=113–}} 2. ^The Anavysos Kouros Alex.
