The Boxer of Quirinal

[Cressa121]

That is a very nice sculpture. So am I understanding this correctly in thinking it was sculpted in first century BC but not discovered until 1885? Amazes me to look at something like that and see what boxing used to be. Thanks for sharing, I'd never seen this before

Yup. Sculpted 1800 years before it was found.
