Strigil

Strigil.

Replica based on the originals from the Gorga collection now in the Museo delle Antichità Etrusche e Italiche (Museum of Etruscan and Italic Antiquities) in Rome.
This kind of strigil belongs to the group with a large ligula and tapered simple capulus. These strigils have the mark APOΛΛOΩΡΩ, that is the name of an officinator that V. Jolivet has identified as working in Praeneste between the end of the 4th and the beginning of the 3rd century BCE (bibliography: Tabolli J., “Gli strigili” in Museo delle Antichità Etrusche ed Italiche 3: I Bronzi della Collezione Gorga (editor: G. Benedettini), 2012, Roma).

Lazio, 4th-3rd century BCE
