Also evidence of the first guy to go to Turkey to get hair implants.
Seriously, though, I wonder if the depiction of him as bald/shaved head reflects the hairstyles of the day, or was hair just too challenging to carve with the tools of the time? Maybe the statue was originally equipped with a wig or other head covering?
