It is currently believed to originate from the second century and now resides in the Konuralp Museum where it was delivered by the archaeologists.
Düzce Municipality also shared a statement by Konuralp Museum describing the statue. “A dated Alexander head measuring 23 cm was found. It is depicted with deep, upward-looking eyes made of marble, drill marks on the pupils, and a slightly open mouth that does not reveal much of its teeth. His long curly hair reaches up to his neck and on the sides of his face are two strands of hair that are parted back and in the middle of his forehead just like the mane of a lion.
