Description: | Incomplete cast lead figurine of a male. The figurine is missing the head, arms and lower legs, with all breakages occurring in antiquity. The male figure is standing with his left leg in front of the right. The rear of the figurine has an overly prominent groove representing the backbone.
The figurine is likely to be a depiction of a Roman god, placing it relatively early in the Roman period. It is now difficult to determine which god is represented, the forward striding figure may be seen as suggestive of Mercury or Apollo. | Source: | Portable Antiquities | Identifier: | http://www.findsdatabase.org.uk/hms/pas_... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
