The Persian warrior, wearing trousers, has his weapons beside him: a curved sword and an oval shield. Amazons and Persians were seen as mythical enemies in Graeco-Roman culture. The Imperial period statue, among others, was erected in Rome, in the baths established by Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa (63—12 BC), son-in-law of Emperor Augustus, to commemorate one of his victories. The group was based on the bronze statues of the so-called Lesser Attalid Monument on the Athenian Acropolis, which was built in the second century BC by one of the kings named Attalos, rulers of Pergamon.
