Beschreibung

A roman carnelian intaglio. Ibis playing the buccina. The bird is playing the buccina, metallic instrument used by roman legions for various signals. The ibis with long beak, blows inside the instrument and holds it with his right leg and by the shoulder belt. This rare representation can be related to a military emblema (cfr. the stork was the III Italic legion emblema). Fine execution of anatomic details, with globular elements. Slight wear marks and little chips on the edges. 1st century A.D.
13 x 9 x 2 mm
