About it
A bust is a statue of a person's head, neck and shoulders. The ancient Romans carved many busts of emperors, leaders and families in marble, a stone that is soft enough to carve but polishes to a smooth, pale shine.
Tap it and the head turns on its neck to look at you, the jaw moves with each syllable, and a speech bubble says "SALVE, AMICE!": Latin for "Hello, friend!" Latin was the language of ancient Rome, and many English words grew from it.
