Three theater masks carved in stone found in the excavations of the theater at Myra.  Note the different hairstyles, including a partially balding figure in the center—with bushy eyebrows and a beard.  In a theatrical production, the actors would use masks and change them as they portrayed different characters.

The heads are about 12 inches [cm.] high.
