Head of a beardless Youth

myminifactory

A youthful countenance beams with a smooth-shaven face, shoulder-length locks cascading down the back, small ornate earrings dangling from pierced lobes, and a diadem resplendent with rosettes crowning the head. This artifact hails from approximately 580 to 530 BC. Initially, this bearded bust was part of a votive statue honoring a devotee, subsequently offered as an offering within a sacred precinct, possibly at Golgoi.
