The Etruscan/Roman Orator of Arringatore 400 BCE

(September 29, 2023)

The Orator of Arringatore is a hollow-cast bronze statue that was recovered from Lake Trasimeno in 1566.  This statue demonstrates the increasing Romanization of Etruscan culture. It wears the short toga exigua (a kind of narrow toga) and senatorial boots that come from the Roman sphere. He is posed as an orator. His haircut is in keeping with those of Roman aristocrats and his face may betray some evidence of the verism (truthfulness) popular among Roman elites of the late Republic. The statue still carries an inscription in Etruscan, though, and the working of the bronze is in keeping with the tendencies of Etruscan craftsmanship.

Statue now at the Museum of Archaeology in Florence, Italy. The text style is different than the Perugia Stone which dates it later than the 499 BCE drought.
