Boar-Skin Headdresses

June 30, 2017February 23, 2022 ~ Liv Yarrow ~ 3 Comments

I feel for sure I’ve put this image next to the gem below before, but I wanted to make sure I have a note of it again.  (RRC 39/2).

Sard gem engraved with Faustulus, with a tunic, skin cloak and staff, finding the she-wolf and Romulus and Remus under a rock, above which is a tree and a helmeted head (?).

BM 1814,0704.1319

July 4, 2021: Leaving Hyria material below but now think completely unrelated and irrelevant.

This Etruscan scarab intaglio on the other hand is perhaps more relevant.

Capture

And for extra fun this coin of Hyria? Orra? Dated to c 210-150 by HN Italy
