Bronze figurine of a Moorish cavalryman. Roman, probably 2nd or 3rd CE. From London, England. This bronze figurine, originally seated on a horse, shows a Moor from the Roman province of Mauretania in North Africa. He has distinctive dreadlocks, a drooping moustache and a full beard. His eyes appear very lifelike because they are inlaid with silver. He wears leather boots and a short cloak over a tunic, and he holds his round shield in front of him. His right hand, now broken, would probably have held a spear. H. 6.0 cm. Inv. PY 1856,0701.19.
