Summary/Abstract: The paper draws attention to sculptural monuments of the Large Herculaneum Woman type from the Roman province of Thrace. Statues (from Philippopolis, Bessapara, Cillae, Augusta Traiana) and images on funerary reliefs (from Perinthos and Merichleri) of the type are discussed. Its appearance on the votive relief of the Thracian horseman from Kirilovo provides further data on the interpretation of female images on the Thracian horseman reliefs. These monuments give an opportunity to study the use of this image, foreign in origin and essence, in local Thracian society
