ID of a Monument
#9
Quote:Nope, this isn't from Pergamon - as mentioned, there is a similar chamfron from the Pergamene weapons reliefs, but that one features feathers. This is from the Campadoglio trophy monument, which dates to around 90 BC (if I recall correctly, and this is all off the top of my head) and was thought to have been set up by Sulla to commemorate the capture of Jugurtha.
Ah, that changes things entirely. Thanks, Ruben.
