Quote:Isn't this one of the Osuna reliefs referred to in H.R.Robinson, The Armour of Imperial Rome, London, (1975) and also published in: Historia de Espana (1954) 1.3 p.555 fig.481-2, and Historia de Espana (1955) 2 p.5f fig.3f ?
Do you know when it dates to? It definitely seems to be a gladiatorial relief.

He had with him the selfsame rifle you see with him now, all mounted in german silver and the name that he\'d give it set with silver wire under the checkpiece in latin: Et In Arcadia Ego. Common enough for a man to name his gun. His is the first and only ever I seen with an inscription from the classics. - Cormac McCarthy, Blood Meridian
