Orphan date February 2009 The Saccopastore skulls are a pair of fossil ized hominid skulls that were found by the Aniene river in Lazio , Italy . They were located in a gravel pit about 2.5 km before the Aniene merges into the Tiber river. The first skull was discovered in 1929, and appears to be that of an adult female. The second was found in 1935 by Professors Breuil and Blanc, and forms part of the face of possibly a 35 year old male.

The headless marble is a copy of a lost Greek bronze, as evidenced by an awkward tree trunk support and the failure of the total silhouette to keep manageably within the boundaries of a single block of stone , as Rhys Carpenter observes it is unlikely to postdate Nero because of its find location. ref Rhys Carpenter, Observations on Familiar Statuary in Rome , Memoirs of the American Academy in Rome 18 , Observations on Familiar Statuary in Rome 1941 25 28 . ref The date of the bronze original that it reflects is contested.

In the time of Cicero it had lost all importance Strabo names it as a mere village, in private hands, while for Pliny the Elder Pliny it was one of the lost cities of Latium.

No remains are to be seen, but the site is admirably adapted for an ancient settlement. The road may be traced leading to the south end of this tableland, being identical with the modern road to Lunghezza for the middle part of its course only.
