Description: | The head of a Roman copper alloy figurine, probably a small statuette of the goddess Minerva. The head has broken off at the base of the neck and has moulded nose and brows, a simple linear mouth and circular eye sockets with moulded circular eyes (partly obscured by dirt). The figure is wearing a Corinthian helmet on the back of her head with a plume at the top and flared sides. Waves of hair are visible under the helmet at the front and sides. The back of the head is relatively flat and there is a notch cut in the back edge of the break. | Format: | text/html | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/ | Publisher: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Rights holder: | The Portable Antiquities Scheme | Subjects: | archaeology | Temporal: | 43
