About this 3D model

Excavated near Luoyang, the capital of the Eastern Zhou dynasty (770–256 BCE), this small sculpture of a kneeling man holding a tube-like vessel in his extended hands may have served as a torchbearer in a tomb. The figure is clothed in a close-fitting garment that wraps from left to right and is belted with a narrow band. The head covering, rather like an open helmet, is broad at the back and rises to a peaked top before descending in a narrow tongue-shaped band at the forehead. ________ This object was scanned by The Minneapolis Institute of Art
