abstract
Publication of a late 3rd century AD fragment of an Early Christian sarcophagus in the Charles University collection. The subject depicted is unusual, but it represents most probably the Baptism in Jordan, with a figure of philosopher, documenting that the change of Jesus to Christ by the baptism was also part of prophecy of Greek philosophers. Fragment raně křesťanského sarkofágu Fragment římského sarkofágu ze sbírky Univerzity Karlovy v Praze je datován do pozdního 3. století po Kr. Zobrazený námět představuje pravděpodobně křest v Jordánu, i když kompozice neodpovídá přesně ostatním památkám s obdobnou dekorací.
