three-sided, like the gold edging on the base of the harp: it was found by the side of the box (near side) especially towards the middle of it, and associated with fragments of narrow lapis strips and shell inlay figures: Probably it formed, with the lapis, a frame for the decorative mosaic panel. |

Part of the decoration of the big box, occupying the middle of the near side. The background is of lapis, the figures shell.

Most of the design was figures, but there were also bits of purely decorative design. One part of each was sufficiently in situ to be waxed: the rest picked out in fragments. |
