Ancient Armenian Statuette
Ancient Armenian statuette from 1st century B.C., Figurine common to Commagene and Armenia. This statuette was found in Egypt together with an identical figure that is now in the collection of the Walters Art Gallery, Baltimore. It has been suggested that the existence of two copies of the same statuette reflect a double geographical reference—that is, if set up together, the twin figures are identified as the personifications of Armenia Major and Armenia Minor.
