His belt holds weaponry, but he doesn’t appear to be wearing a helmet, so I don’t think this is patent Roman legionary ear protection against swords, nippy German mornings, or Celtic music. Yet “Quintus Petilius Secundus” “Ohren” brings no joy. Has the House of Windsor got Italian roots? Was he used by imperial forces as an early warning system, a walking, talking ancestor of the Denge sound mirrors? Not to put it too crudely, how did he die and did this trait survive, e.g. in Ludwig van Beethoven? Shame on you, Northrhinewestphalians!
