Salve!<br>
<br>
It might be in the National Archaeological Museum of Florence, but I'm not sure. I just visited the museum few weeks ago and saw lots of similar small warrior statues. I took some pics but I can't access those right now. I'll try to get my photos back as soon as possible and check do I have a photo of it.<br>

That head looks very much like the head of a bronze statue known as "the Mars of Todi".<br>
But this one still has the helmet on whereas the Mars of Todi is scalped. From the little I can see of the cuirass it looks also very much like the Mars of Todi. Interesting.<br>
