Bagnall","commentary":"Very schematic dipinto of a human bust, possibly a veiled male, located in the lower right quadrant of the back wall of Bay 8. The figure is in profile toward the left with exaggerated facial features. A very large oval eye and a long, rectangular, and prominent nose are placed over a small opened mouth with a triangular upper lip. The chin is quite pronounced and the elongated neck sits over small and drooping shoulders. There are no clear indications of hair: a short and almost vertical line starting near the eye might suggest the presence of a veil whose flaps flow down at the two sides of the neck.","caption":"Drawing of a face","writingStyleInEnglish":"charcoal","property":{"englishPropertyName":"Basilica","italianPropertyName":"Basilica","insula":{"shortName":"Agora","fullName":"Agora","city":{"name":"Smyrna","pleiadesId":"550771"}},"propertyTypes":[{"name":"Basilica","description":""}],"numberOfGraffiti":325,"uri":"Smyrna/Agora/1","propertyName":"Basilica","propertyNumber":"1"},"figuralInfo":{"drawingTags":[{"name":"Human figures","description":"drawings of humans"}],"descriptionInLatin":"((:caput hominis ad sin.))","descriptionInEnglish":"head of person facing left"},"trismegistosNumber":null,"uri":"https://ancientgraffiti.org/Graffiti/graffito/AGP-SMYD00084","agpId":"AGP-SMYD00084","citation":"AGP-SMYD00084, <i>The Ancient Graffiti Project</i>, &lt;https://ancientgraffiti.org/Graffiti/graffito/AGP-SMYD00084&gt; [accessed: 29 Apr 2026]","graffitoHeight":"32","graffitoLength":"14","pleiadesId":"550771","locationMetadataLink":"properties/Smyrna/Agora/1"}
