The name Murlo cowboy is applied to a set of more than a dozen Etruscan acroteria from the sixth century BCE held at the museum of the Poggio Civitate at Murlo in the Province of Siena, Tuscany, Italy. The major piece of the group is a seated terracotta statue with a wide-brimmed hat reminiscent of a cowboy hat. The statue probably represents a haruspex. On Etruscan buildings, statues of gods, heroes, or ancestors were often placed on the ridges of roofs to protect votive offerings.

  • La désignation « cowboy de Murlo » est attribuée à un ensemble de plus d'une dizaine de statues-acrotères étrusques qui ont permis plusieurs reconstitutions exposées à l’Antiquarium de Poggio Civitate de Murlo, un musée archéologique de la province de Sienne. Cette statue en terracotta (terre cuite locale en coroplathie) du VIe siècle av. J.-C. est désignée ainsi par la forme caractéristique du couvre-chef à large bord de ce personnage, probablement un dignitaire religieux (haruspice) et/ou administratif de ce site étrusque. (fr)

Elle correspond aux rites étrusques qui consistaient à représenter les divinités, des ancêtres héroïsés ou des dignitaires sur le faîte des toitures des habitations pour les protéger votivement. (fr)
