Forgive my ignorance, but is this supposed to be a bust for a priest of the Mithras cult? His hat does resemble a magi’s. The site also doesn’t provide details
I heard this guy was the inspiration for the bishop piece in chess.
That hat style *really* went out of fashion…except for clowns, I guess.
