    Tanım

    His weight was on the l. leg, the r. leg bent and drawn back slightly. The toga swings in a mighty hold to r. foot with a deeply drilled central hollow down the middle of the body. Cloth, drawn over r. leg, reveals its shape. L. leg has an independent curve system, a kind of parallel swing. At l. of figure are remains of a vertical fold of toga and below it, the upper part of a tied shoe, a calceus. Apparently part of l. leg was pieced on, for there are five vertical hollows at the break, and at back is a small circular hole, diam. 0.01, for pin to hold an additional piece of fold. The back is worked in larger, simpler folds. There are traces of a support (pillar) at back l. with rectangular dowel hole (0.03 by 0.04; D 0.06) at l. buttock.

    Workmanship is highly competent. Large and deep drill runs are carefully planned and drill traces are often obliterated. The piece originally had a good finish. Style suggests a date in the 1st C. A.D., perhaps Flavian.

    Condition

    Coarse-grained local marble. Like other sculpture excavated by Butler, weatherworn to black-gray with black blotches.

    Preserved waist to knee on r. side and thigh to top of shoe on l.
