Description

La columna de Igel es un monumento funerario romano del siglo iii, ubicado en Igel, a 9 km al oeste de Tréveris, sobre el margen izquierdo del río Mosela, en Alemania.

El monumento, en arenisca roja, tiene una altura de 27 metros. La inscripción de la cara delantera indica que se trata de una tumba familiar construida por los hermanos Secundino Aventino y Secundino Securo. Los relieves, presentes sobre las cuatro caras, muestran rastros de pintura. Representan escenas mitológicas: Aquiles, Perseo y Andrómeda, los trabajos y la apoteosis de Hércules. Muestra también escenas cotidianas entre los ricos comerciantes de telas de Augusta Treverorum y sus clientes. El monumento está coronado con una escultura que muestra a Júpiter y Ganimedes[1]​ llevados hacia el Olimpo por una águila , de donde proviene el nombre de Igel.
