One of the most remarkable objects raised from Alexandria's harbor during a recent archaeological dig was the torso and head of a colossal male statue in red Aswan granite. From the base of the neck to mid-
thigh, the statue measures 13 1/2 feet. It dates from the Ptolemaic period and appears to portray one of
the Greek rulers in the traditional costume of an Egyptian king. Unfortunately, no inscription tells us his
name.
Question

O Greek rulers generally wore Egyptian costumes for ceremonial purposes
O Greek statues are noteworthy for their size
o the statue of the Greek ruler was unusual because it consisted of only a torso and a head
O archaeologists cannot tell which ruler the recently excavated statue depicts
