Youth of Mozia, or Giovane di Mozia, marble statue, 475-450 BC, height 194cm, excavated in Zone K, in the Mozia Museum or Whitaker Museum, in Mozia, a Phoenician island city, Trapani, Sicily, Italy. The statue has traces of polychrome paint and its feet and arms are missing. It was found on Mozia in October 1979 under a heap of earth and rubble, and was made by a Sicilian or Selinuntine workshop. Mozia was founded in the 8th century BC by the Phoenicians, and remained an important city and Carthaginian trade outpost, thriving until it was overthrown by the Syracuse Greeks in 397 BC. In 1888 the island was rediscovered by Joseph Whitaker, who, through his Fondazione Giuseppe Whitaker, excavated the site and founded the island's museum. Picture by Manuel Cohen
