Gorgons and Images

[TITVS SABATINVS AQVILIVS]

from http://www.curlesnewstead.org.uk/175.htm

"the centurion Q. Sertorius Festus at Verona has likewise nine phalerae decorated with a Gorgon, Bacchic heads, an eagle, and a horse"

The Lauersfort Phalerae

"Coming now to actual examples, we may note the well-known set found at Lauersfort,[2] near Crefeld, Rhenish Prussia, in 1858. This is preserved at Berlin. It consists of ten bronze discs, covered with thin plates of hammered silver, nine being circular, with a diameter of 4¼ inches, and one crescent-shaped. On the back of each are three small loops for fastenings. The circular pieces are decorated with heads in high relief,—Jupiter, Cupid; a Gorgon, a lion, and so on"


So maybe they are Bacchic heads or cupid too, I cannot see from the R.A. imagebase pic if those faces have a circular decoration, a beard or knotted snakes... I'd be for beards, if so no gorgons, but is unclear from the pic.

Vale,

P. S.: your italian is not so bad! Keep it alive!
