Antalya museum december 2012 7127.jpg

Armoured headless statue of Emperor (Hadrian?), Found in Perge in 1992 in front of the stage of the Theatre.
I for one found the cuirass fascinating, I took many pictures of the pterygs, most likely leather in reality, in a double row hanging from the breastplate. Doing so I overlooked the rest, including some nice decoration on the breastplate. Some other time.
