text: A glyptotheque is a collection of sculptures. It is part of the name of several museums and art galleries. The designation glyptotheque was coined by the librarian of King Ludwig I of Bavaria, derived from the Ancient Greek verb glyphein (γλύφειν), meaning "cut into stone". It was an allusion to the word pinacotheca. Glypton (γλυπτόν) is the Greek word for a sculpture. Museums that today bear this name or cognates of it include: Glyptothek, in Munich, Germany Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek, in Copenhage
