Hi Jane,
This term came up in a translation I did this summer for an archaeological museum in central Italy.
This link is from the University of Chicago. If you scroll down to the bottom, you'll find a picture.
Amy is correct in saying that the name comes from strigil, the implement athletes used to "scrape" the sweat and grime from their bodies.
