Se översättningRomerska antiken Cucullatus gudom i brons Figur - 9.8 cm
Nr 88533295
A very rare roman bronze Genie Cucullatus. Round statuette made by mould, representing a male figure dressed in a tunic with a hood, which marks his large belly, with a broad, domed forehead and a stepped headdress, with a pierced top that allows the piece to be hung and worn as an amulet. With old marble support.
The 'genii cucullati' ('hooded spirits') are religious figures found in the Romano-Celtic regions from Britain to Pannonia. They are depicted as hooded figures, and in the case of Britannia they take the form of a triple deity. The hooded cloak was associated in Roman times with the Gauls and Celts. In fact Telesphorus, the hooded god of health, may have originated in Greco-Galatian syncretism (Anatolia, 3rd century BC). The religious significance of the hooded genii is not yet clear, as no inscriptions have been found, but there is some evidence to suggest that they may have been spirits associated in some way with fertility. Ronald Hutton notes that in some cases they carry egg-shaped objects, which may symbolise life and rebirth, although Graham Webster has pointed out that these curved forms resemble contemporary Roman phallic stones. In any case, many of these figures carry swords or daggers, which is why some scholars place them in the context of warrior rites. The name CucuIlatus is a derivative of Gaulish cucullos, meaning 'hood'.
