Description: | A figurine of a Roman / classical figure. These figurines are often mis-identified as being Roman in date.
The style of the object, the condition of the metal and the fact that the figure is clothed and not naked, suggests that the figurine is a lot later in date. Figurines such as this were popular in the 19th ? 20th century. The neo-classical appearance of the figurine would suggest that he came from an ornament of this date and is therefore not Roman. | 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: | 1800
