Herodotus and Thucydides Double Herm Bust |2nd Century AD Roman Replica |

Description: 🔹This 3D printed statue is a detailed replica of a Janiform Herm, featuring the heads of Thucydides and Herodotus. A herm is a stone pillar, typically rectangular in section and topped with a head, that was traditionally used to mark crossroads and boundaries, serving as a wayside shrine for travelers. Originally reserved for gods, herms later became a medium for portrait busts, as seen in this example. Thucydides, a historian of the wars between Athens and Sparta, championed the Athenian general Perikles. His contemporary, Herodotus, traveled extensively and aimed for impartiality in his writings, earning the title 'the Father of History'. Both historians wrote in the fifth century BCE. This herm is a Roman version of a Greek original, with this specific piece being an early 2nd Century AD copy of a Greek original from the early 4th Century BC. This replica captures the essence of the original sculpture, reflecting the historical and cultural significance of these two eminent historians. Perfect for history enthusiasts and collectors, this statue embodies the rich heritage of classical antiquity and makes a distinguished addition to any collection. 🌟Material & Process🌟 This product is crafted using high-quality PLA with a 3D printer, then meticulously hand-painted and varnished to perfection.
