Definition
A museum or collection of carved stones, gems, and engraved works of art, especially ancient ones.
Etymology
From Greek 'glyptos' (carved) and 'theke' (case or repository), literally meaning 'carved things collection,' used since the 1800s for institutions housing carved artifacts.
Kelly Says
The most famous glyptotheca is in Munich, housing over 1,500 classical Greek and Roman sculptures—it's basically a time capsule of carving techniques and artistic standards from thousands of years ago.
