File talk:Relief Numa Pompilius cour Carree Louvre.jpg

That's not Herodotus.

It's part of a larger bas relief at the Louvre, made to celebrate Napoleon as a law-giver. (fh.oxfordjournals.org/content/early/2011/06/27/fh.crr043/F1.large.jpg) It is "History Inscribing upon Her Tablet the Names of Napoleon the Great and the Legislators Moses, Numa, and Lycurgus." See Jonathan P. Ribner, Broken Tablets: The Cult of the Law in French Art from David to Delacroix. (http://publishing.cdlib.org/ucpressebooks/view?docId=ft4x0nb2dg;chunk.id=d0e708;doc.view=print)According to Ribner:

   History, flanked by busts of Herodotus and Thucydides, inscribes the name of France's great legislator in the presence of four representatives of the sacred mysteries of law.

If you look closely you can see the names on the busts flanking History. (http://souslecieldeparisetdailleurs.o.s.f.unblog.fr/files/2014/04/cour-carree-1806.jpg) The bust on the viewer's right is Ἡρόδοτος, or Herodotus.

The two large statues on either side of the window are Moses (with horns) and Numa Pompilius, legendary king and lawgiver of Rome. According to Ribner, he "holds attributes of priesthood and prophecy, the wand of augury and a vestal flame." This "wand of augury" is a lituus. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lituus).
