A Roman era statue from the second or third century AD was found in Veria, Northern Greece.

 

Quote

“In a statement issued by the Greek Ministry of Culture, archaeologists were conducting excavations near the site of Agios Patapios, where they uncovered a marble statue of a young man with an athletic body partially dressed in a cloak. 

The statue, which stands almost one meter tall is lacking a head, so archaeologists are unable to determine who it depicts, although traditional unclothed figures in Greek statuary normally represents gods or athletes.”
