A roman carnelian intaglio. Military votive scene.
2nd century A.D.
14x17x3 mm
The general, probably an emperor, faces left. His right hand holds a patera, on an altar with a lit fire; the left holds a spear and a cloth. The character wears full armor, with shoes and a laurel wreath on his head. Good-luck votive scene. Chipped on the edge. Nice vivid color.
