This bronze head of the Roman emperor Augustus was once part of a larger-than-life size statue that stood in the ancient city of Meroë, now in modern-day Sudan. Made between 27 and 25 BC, the statue was probably broken up by an invading Kushite army in 25 BC, and the head was seized as a trophy. It was excavated lying face down beneath the steps to a shrine – so that worshippers would trample over it, showing their contempt for the Roman empire. History may have been written by the ‘winners’, but there are many alternative stories in the Museum’s collection. You can investigate the history of dissent and protest in our new #IObject exhibition, opening this autumn. Don’t miss our special early bird offer – #IObject full-price adult tickets are just £10 for a limited time! Book via the link in our bio.
