It appears Elvis was always the King of Rock.

A 1,800-year old Roman bust that looks strikingly like Elvis Presley is set to go on the auction block in London.

The hunka hunka chiseled stone is a marble acroterion – a carved head from a sarcophagus corner – and will be part of a $2 million collection of more than 150 ancient works up for grabs Oct. 15.

Australian art collector Graham Geddes, who owns the lot, even calls the carving “Elvis.”

The resemblance is so uncanny that one can almost see the country crooner’s famous lip snarl and hear the twang of an acoustic guitar in the background.

The second-century bust is estimated to fetch between $50,000 and $60,000.

“Fans of the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll, seeing this face from the distant past, will be forgiven for thinking that their idol may well have lived a previous life in Rome,” said Julian Roup, spokesman for Bonhams auction house, which is overseeing the sale.

He called it the “strangest item in the sale, certainly to modern eyes.”
