I once had items from the Hellenistic period that kinda remind me of this second one but I think that is way off and the wrong region for this piece. Opinions, please! Did I find a long-lost treasure? They were purchased together in the same place. Any help is very much appreciated and hope everyone enjoys their weekend![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
