SECONDARY ATTRIBUTES OF VICTOR STATUES. 169 
When we consider heads of gods and heroes we find the swollen ears 
on a variety of types. We see them on the so-called Borghese War- 
rior of the Louvre (Fig. 43),! formerly called a Gladiator, and on the 
marble statue of Kresilzan style in Munich, which has been known 
since Brunn’s interpretation as Diomedes (carrying off the Palladion 
from Troy) (Pl. 21).2 This latter statue is a careful, though inexact, 
Hadrianic copy of a famous work and is shown to represent the hero, 
and not an athlete, by the mantle thrown over the arm. Skill in 
the boxing match, the roughest and most dangerous of sports, is as 
appropriate to Diomedes as to Herakles himself. The crushed ears 
appear on the Dresden replica of this statue, a cast from the Mengs 
collection, the original of which was once probably in England,* but 
do not appear on the poor copy in the Louvre.*’ They also appear on 
the Myronian bust in the Riccardi Palace, Florence, which is a copy of 
an original that was, perhaps, the forerunner of the Kresilazan 
Diomedes.®> Here again the garment thrown over the left shoulder 
shows that a youthful hero, and not an athlete, is intended. 
On heads of Herakles the swollen ears are very common. The 
first dated representation of the hero with battered ears appears to be 
on coins of Euagoras I, the king of Salamis in Cyprus during the years 
410-374 B.C. We have several examples in sculpture from the fourth 
century B.C. ‘Thus swollen ears and the victor fillet appear on the 
Skopaic head in the Capitoline Museum.’ Another example is the 
terminal bust of the youthful hero found in 1777 at Genzano, and now 
in the British Museum (Fig. 31). This head wreathed with poplar

Reinach, Rép., I, 154, 1-4. Rayet calls the statue that of a hoplitodromos.

128 (left=original; right=cast); Furtw., Mp., p. 147, fig. 60 (from a cast with modern res- 
torations omitted), and p. 150, fig. 61 (head, two views); text, pp. 146 ff.; Mzw., Pls. XII, XIII; 
text, pp. 311 f.; Clarac, 871, 2219 and 633, 1438 A.; Gardner, Sculpt., Pl. XVII (cast). Its 
Kresilzan origin has been shown by Brunn (I. c., pp. 660 and 673), Flasch (Vortraege an der 41sten 
Philologenversamml., 1891, p. 9, quoted by Furtwaengler), Loeschke and Studniczka (quoted by 
Furtwaengler) and Furtwaengler. It alsoshows Myronictraces. It stands 1.86 meters (without 
the base). 
3Furtw., Mp., p. 151, fig. 62; Mw., Pl. XIV and p. 313. This and a head in private possession 
in England, B. B., 543 (three views), are the best and truest copies of the lost original.

fig. 2 and p.54. Two other copies of the same original are the one in the Capitoline Museum, 
Rome, and one found in 1876 on the Quirinal and now in the Palazzo dei Conservatori there. B. 
Graef, R. M., IV, 1889, p. 189 f, and Pls. VIII (Capitoline bust) and IX (Quirinal bust), attributes 
the type to Skopas; he is followed by Collignon, II, p. 240, n. 1; cf. S. Reinach, Gaz. d. B-A., 3d 
Per., III, 1890, pp. 338 and 340. Wolters tried to show that it was Praxitelian. But the similarity 
between these heads and that of the Lansdowne Herakles (Pl. 30 and fig. 71), which we ascribe 
to Lysippos in Ch. VI, pp. 298, 311, is easily apparent.
