When it was first suggested that the two fragments could be part of the same sculpture, the Boston MFA denied it on the grounds that many other versions of the statue were made during Roman times, many of which still survive.
Kad je prvi puta sugerirano kako bi dva fragmenta mogla predstavljati dijelove iste skulpture, Muzej likovne umjetnosti u Bostonu je to zanijekao na temelju toga što je u vrijeme Rima izrađeno mnogo drugih verzija kipa, od kojih brojne postoje i danas.
