 | 16347 | 31-43-361 | (none) | (none) | Terracotta bed. 4 legs. Same type as 16346, but much more closely strung. |
 | 16348 | (none) | (none) | (none) | Rubbing stone. Black Diorite. |
| 16366 | (none) | (none) | (none) | Cylinder seal. Black steatite. 2 standing figures saluting. Between them a palm tree. |
 | 16406 | 31-43-205 | (none) | (none) | Puzuzu head amulet. White frit, originally glazed. [drawing 1:1] |
| 16423 | (none) | (none) | (none) | Head of statue. Dark steatite. Bearded male head with long hair dressed in the Assyrian fashion & long waved beard, both finely engraved. Good work but bad condition. The right side of the face perished and nose and lips gone, and the left side which is better preserved, damaged by rubbing. |
| 16424 | (none) | 1931,1010.1 | (none) | Statue. White limestone, with eyes inlaid with shell and lapis; traces of black paint on hair. Female figure standing, hands clasped in front of the body. Nose broken, one eye pupil restored. The hair is simply treated with curls across the forehead, then a broad bandeau; the back hair is brought up & over the bandeau in a small chignon and hangs in a heavy wave above the shoulders & at back of head. She wears a plain chiton & heavy cloak falling from the shoulders over the arms in straight lines to the feet. The feet are missing, the base of the stone being broken away; when found the statue was let into a round baase and bitumen had been plastered round it & smoothed down so as to make a spreading skirt at the expense of loss of design to the figure, which was this reduced from an original height ofc. 54mm to 37mm (the bitumen has been kept on by waxing). It had also been broken in half and mended with bitumen. The workmanship is not very good, and the decayed surface of the stone does it less than justice - but the type is a good classical one. The statue was obviously an antiquity given a place of honor in a temple which must date to circ. BC; so that the date of the statue might well be as early as the 3rd dynasty of UR. |
| 16426 | (none) | (none) | (none) | Terracotta relief. A bull-legged demon facing right. Broken in half but virtually complete. The body is in profile with the left leg advanced, and hands held in front of body holding a staff, the head is full-face. The figure is nude except for a belt; he wears the bulls horn headdress and has bulls ears, but the face is human, with long elaborately curled beard. From the waist downwards the body is that of a bull. Bold but conventional work, the upper part in high relief, the legs flat and poor. It was painted bright red all over with black on the beard and eyes; ground also red. The red paint had mixed with the soil & formed a powdery covering as much as .002 thickness, concealing the fgure; much of that next to the clay was preserved and some was replaced. |
 | 16427 | 31-43-173 | (none) | (none) | Head of a ram. Dark steatite. Cult object for fixing on a pole. The neck and head made in 2 pieces; the eyes originally inlaid (inlay missing); perfect except for chips out of one horn and the ears. The neck and the head are covered with a fleece conventially rendered in small locks, the face smooth, the horns crinkled. Very good work. [drawing 1:1] |
