Bronze head of Hypnos, the god of sleep. Copy of a Hellenistic original, found at Civitella d'Arno, near Perugia, Italy. Hypnos was associated with poppies and sleep- inducing herbs. His wings allowed him to move swiftly over land and sea and to fan the foreheads of the weary until they fell asleep. GR 1868.6-6.9.
