「Giant statue of Hadrian unearthed
The statue dates to the early period of Hadrian's reign
In pictures
Parts of a huge, exquisitely carved statue of the Roman Emperor Hadrian have been found at an archaeological site in south-central Turkey.
The original statue would have stood 4m-5m in height, experts estimate.
His achievements include the massive wall built across the width of northern Britain which bears his name.
Ruling Rome from AD117 to AD138; he was known as a great military administrator and is one of the so-called "five good emperors".
So far, the excavators have unearthed the head, foot and part of a leg.
But they are hopeful other parts of the statue may be uncovered in coming weeks.
The foot is 80cm (31.5 ins) long, the leg - from just above the knee to the ankle - is nearly 70cm (27ins) long. The head, which is almost intact save for its broken nose, also measures 70cm (27 ins). 」
ということでハドリアヌス帝の巨大な彫刻が発掘されたというニュースです。
まあハドリアヌス帝はイギリスで長大な城壁を気づいた人なので
話題がいかにもイギリスといった感じです。
