I wonder if the head came off when the Goths came strolling into Rome.

In the sewer? Now that was just plain rude.

But still a crappy way to end up.

Looks to me that it is a head from a sarcophicus.
A monumental statue of Constantine wouldn't represent him with sunken eyes and closed eye lids.
It's a death mask which is much more significant.

Glad to see that you are back freeping. I hope you are recovering well.

So perhaps it was hidden in the drain to prevent looting by the Moslems?

Are they sure they got the right name for this guy? Maybe his name was actually Commodius. B-)
