Supposed Bust Of Nero.


A valuable bust believed to be that
of the Emperor Nero, says the Paris
Messenger, has just been turned up by
a peasant digging in the fields at
Ravanusa, near Glrgenti. The whole
of this countryside, where first the
Greek town of Ila stood, and then the
Carthagianians came and lastly Virgil
walled away many pleasant studious
days, is rich in relics. Pottery, medals,
money, canoes and arms are often
turned up by spade and plcw: but the
peasants not being learned folks, only
objects of the most obvious value have
been preserved.
However. the recently discovered
bust was rather a special find, and
vas Strapped up by one of the curators
Of the Girgenti museum. 1t is of Par
ian marble, rather than life size, and
in excellent preservation. One of the
chief reasons for supposing it to be
bust of Nero-setting aside the fact
that it's artistic qualities mark it un-
Goubtedly as being of some very ex-
slted Romans that Neros famous
favorite, the freedman Tigellinus. was
born and possessed magnificent si.las
