3493069 Statue of a Wounded Warrior, c.138-181 A.D. (marble) by Roman, (2nd century AD); 221 high cm; Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA; (add.info.: Copy of a Greek bronze statue of ca. 460??50 B.C. Identification uncertain but the figure must have some association with the sea and may be the Greek hero Protesilaos, who ignored an oracle\'s warning that the first Greek to step on Trojan soil would be the first to die in battle. This statue might represent him descending from the ship ready to meet his fate. Following the discovery of a wound carved in the right armpit, the figure was reinterpreted as a dying warrior falling backward and identified as a famous statue by the sculptor Kresilas.).
