About this 3D model

This head of Balbinus is dated around 239 A.D and comes from the Roman market of antiquities. The date of birth of Balbinus is not clearly known. One report points to the year AD 178, but AD 170 or 165 appear more likely dates.Balbinus was the son, either by birth or by adoption, of a high standing Roman named Caelius Calvinus (a member of the Salian priesthood and therefore a patrician).He had a distinguished senatorial career, becoming consul in AD 203 and 213,and held governorships of no less than seven provinces, the last two being Asia and Africa.
