About the earring

[edit]

Hello!

Does anyone know why this man wore an earring? I thought that, in the antiquity, western cultures men wore them only if they were pirates. This man is supposedly a scholar... Thanks... — Preceding unsigned comment added by George Rodney Maruri Game (talk • contribs) 18:35, 3 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
