EDITORS COMMENTS
This ancient limestone sculpture depicts a male head from the Archaic Period of Cyprus, dating back to the last quarter of the 6th century B.C. The intricately carved bust, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, United States, showcases a mature man with a well-groomed beard and a distinctive helmet adorned with a bird and a wing. The helmet, a common feature in Cypriot art of the time, symbolizes the warrior status of the depicted individual. The bird perched on the helmet could represent various deities or mythological creatures, adding an element of religious or mythological significance to the piece. The meticulous details and the lifelike expression on the face suggest the high level of skill and craftsmanship of the ancient Cypriot artists. This archaeological treasure, discovered in Golgoi, Cyprus, offers a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage and artistic achievements of the ancient Cypriot civilization.
