This marble bust depicts the head of a Homeric hero, a version of a lost Hellenistic original. The other version of this head was found, together with the body, a Sperlonga, south of Rome. There it belonged to a figure, portraying a wineskin-carrier, in a group showing the blinding of Plyphemos by Odysseus and his men. The Sperlonga grouo, dating to the 1st century AD, is a copy of an earlier Hellenistic original of around 200 BC. It was found at Hadrian's Villa in Trivola and is part of the Townley Collection at The British Museum where it is on permanent display.   This object is part of "Scan The World".
