ROMAN. Imperial. Bronze Figurine of Mars. 2nd-3rd century AD. Cast figurine of Mars Ultor, based on the statue at Rome, holding spear and sword (both lost in antiquity). Originally attached to a base (also lost), the figure would have been placed in the shrine alongside the Lares and Penates. Length 60mm. Cf. Windholz, Carnuntum p. 349. Good condition, green and red patina. An attractive military-related artifact.
