Sumario:Roman portraits with Y-Motif in the fringe have never been investigated exhaustively. Isolated comments or individual studies of some of them are all that can be found in specialised literature. The basic questions posed by the use of this iconographic detail in Roman portraiture remain unanswered: when and where it was employed, who were portrayed in that way, and why. The aim of the present paper is to fill that gap in research.
