I made a mistake: overall length is 101 cm.
And yes, it has been found in the Fayyum (Egypt), last month, by the Lecce University archaeological mission.
It may take a very long time to see it in a museum, since this depends on local authorities decision.
However, before it can be exhibited, it must be restored: if you know any _generous_ fan of the roman army they are always in search for private sponsors :wink:
Many thanks for the bibliographical suggestions.
