Description

**Originally Listed At $250**

Roman, Imperial period, ca. 1st to 3rd century CE. A charming mold-made hollow ceramic votive figure of a rooster, shown here standing proudly upward, with crest and tail erect. To the Romans, the rooster was an agricultural symbol, but was also sometimes seen as a companion of the god Mercury; this votive was probably an offering to him. Size: 3.45" W x 4.9" H (8.8 cm x 12.4 cm); 5.7" H (14.5 cm) on included custom stand.
