Description: \'torn, evidently in antiquity, from a very fine figurine, made of a heavy leaded alloy. This is a sensitively-modelled rendering, with somewhat concave face, deep-set eye-sockets (the eyes were probably separately made) and full mouth, with lips slightly parted. The face is framed by two tiers of curling locks above and by a bushy beard below. On the head is his cap (pileus) with lappets' (Henig and Paddock). Would have been a large figure.
