Özet

Bu çalışmada, antik dönemde Bithynia Bölgesi’nde yer alan Nikomedia kentinde (İzmit ili) bulunan ve bugün İzmit Müzesi’nde sergilenen onbir adet heykeltıraşlık eserinin ikonografik ve stilistik analizi yapılmıştır. Bu eserler; dört adet giyimli erkek torsosu, üç adet giyimli kadın torsosu, bir Aion Herme’si, bir Asklepios torsosu, bir Herakles başı ve bir erkek başından oluşmaktadır. Eserler, antik kentte yapılan düzenli bir kazı sonucunda değil tamamen tesadüfi biçimlerde bulunmuşlardır ve hepsi Roma dönemine aittir. Kentte bulunmuş olan bu eserlerin nitelikleri ve kaliteli işçilikleri kentin önemli bir heykeltıraşlık aktivitesine sahip olduğuna işaret etmektedir.
