- Tanım
The fragment has a pattern of near-hexagonal rounded “beads” arranged in three continuous lines from l. to r. plus an intrusive line of three beads. It is possible from the hair of an archaic kouros (?), the back portion either just below the top (Richter, Kouroi, no. 148, fig. 418) or just above the diadem (ibid., no. 146, fig. 434). These comparisons from Chalkis and Thebes are kouroi of the Anavysos-Ptoon group, ca. 540-520 B.C.
Despite slight irregularities the piece is archaic rather than Roman archaistic. The latter possibility was suggested by B.S. Ridgway.
