A roman italic burnt sard. Dying Otriade.

2nd century B.C.

Diam_ 10 x 2 mm

The spartan warrior is seated on the ground, still holding the sword with his left hand and covering himself with the shield held by his right hand. The character wears helmet and armor. Use of globular elements, typical of the Italic style. Attractive and peculiar color of the stone due to burns. Interesting composition.



U.K. private collection, London.
