Lot: 896
Cucullatus genius Rome 2th AC

Bulk statuette representing a male figure dressed in a tunic with a hood, which marks his large belly, with a head with a wide and domed forehead and stepped headdress, with a perforated finial that allows the piece to be hung and worn as an amulet. The “genii cucullati” (“hooded spirits”) are religious figures found in Romano-Celtic regions from Britain to Pannonia. They are depicted as hooded figures, and in the case of Britain they take the form of a triple deity. The hooded cape was associated in Roman times with the Gauls and the Celts. To this day, it is still not known with certainty what was the religious importance of the hooded geniuses, since no inscriptions have been found, but there are data that indicate that they could have been spirits related in some way to fertility. Good condition. Rome. S. I / II AD. 9cm high
