A Roman-era marble bust of Greek philosopher Aristotle (384 BC - 322 BC) was unearthed during recent archaeological excavations at the foot of the Acropolis in Athens.

The 46-cm (18-inch) bust, an excellently preserved likeness of the 4th century philosopher, was unearthed together with the busts of Roman emperor Hadrian (31 cm) and of a priest, possibly, of the Theater of Dionysus (34 cm).

Aristotle's bust is considered to be the best of all existing ancient ones.
