Ave!
Lead; 31mm/32.7gm
A friend of mine sent me this odd artifact for photography. I asked him what it was and he could only tell me that he purchased it
at a trade show 25 years ago, in a lot of random artifacts. FYI - the base is flat and as
cast, not broken.
As seen in the photo, the
head appears to be wearing either a pointed
cap or helmet with cheek guards.
Attis, maybe? Something completely different?
Like my friend, I have no clue. Your thoughts, guys?
