Another New Scissor relief

[Tib. Gabinius]

Salve Medusa

As far as I can remember, there is no evidence to the use of the lorica segmentata by glatiators!

That's not quite the undiscussable fact.
The crupellarius, shown in a little statuette and explained as unhitable fghter by Tacitus could been an user of a segmentata.
Discussed several times, e.g. here:

To the rest of the discussion: please start with the necessary:
Form, material, context, preservation before starting the contents to be looked for.
Take a look at the tunics/chainmails/whatever.
An example which problems will stay if just discuss what everyone guess to see: There are some folds, but are this folds or is this left by the natural attacks on the material? And is this relief close to natur or stylizing?

And please, like Junkelmann himself wrote, dont forget we know some facts not for sure, like the less well reported types of gladiatorial combat.
That leads us back to the problem before: Show the helmets no eyes cause the erosion got them away, were the relief unfinished, should it show something or were these guys andabati...?

Arch. is more than just take a look on
