Limestone male figure in Egyptian dress 2nd quarter of the 6th century Cypriot The figure wears a wig, a relatively simple belt, and a kilt. Decoration on the tunic and central panel of the kilt are very worn. The articulation of the eyebrows and mustache is comparable to that of the terracotta heads nearby; the softness of the limestone allowed details to be articulated much the same way as in clay. An inscription in the Cypriot syllabary on the worshiper's left forearm reads, "I am [the statue] of Tamigoras [Timagoras?].". Limestone male figure in Egyptian dress 256899
