Abstract
The Kore-type - with its versions, derivations, and contaminations - occupied an important
position in the sequence of female statues in Roman Cisalpine Gaul. This type was
clearly included among the types in common circulation all over the Roman World, with
a particular concentration in the eastern part of that territory, during the Julio-Claudian
dynasty. From an artistic point of view, the quality of the statues is not particularly high
and, in generally, a thin veil of classicism is evident. It is notable, however, that this type
was not reserved for exclusive use by the imperial family but was also adopted by local élites.
