Modern 3D digital archiving technique provides a reliable assistance to archaeologists. In this paper, we explore a novel framework for digital classical sculpture comparison. Quantitative comparison is introduced, and shape difference is visualized as an indicator to infer unclear points about statue reproduction process in Roman period. Providing a new perspective for the culture relics study, our method plausibly verifies several important assumptions.
