Braided hair of a Caryatid, one of the original pillar-statues from the erechthyon on the Acropolis. Copies have been installed so the originals could be protected in a museum. They survived about 2,000 years in the open, but they are no match for modern acid rain and vandals. The sculptors of classic Greece really mastered the carving of draped cloth.

Head of Antinoos, an exceptionally beautiful young man with whom the emperor Hadrian was smitten and who kept him as a companion. When the youth died in a tragic accident, Hadrian had him declared a demi-god and by imperial order he was worshiped in same areas. The holes around his head originally held a bronze laurel leaves of victory.

Bas Relief, one of the panels from the frieze that circled the Parthenon. It portrayed the assembling pf a procession to the Parthenon, with multiple men hitching up, mounting, then riding horses to a ceremony.

Looks more like Chief Broken Foot is wearing concrete overshoes, and will soon be sleeping with the fishes.
