description

International audience; The “Warrior of Saint-Maur” is a statuette that was discovered by accident in 1983 in the Celtic and Roman sanctuary of Saint-Maur-en-Chaussée,Oise, France. It is one of the rare metal human representations of the Celtic period. Its restoration by the C2RMF gave rise to a new study of its manufacturing, function and dating. During this analysis, a similarity has been noticed between the shield carried by this warrior and some miniature votive shields. The metric and formal comparison with the miniature shields found in North-West Europe invites to a new critical reading on the identification and function of such objects.
