18117 32-40-140 (none) (none) Stone object. Grey steatite (?). Rather fiddle shaped, flat, the face decorated with incised rosettes and concentric circles, the sides with guilloches, the back unfinished -- two concentric circles and an attempt to connect them with a guilloche faintly scratched. On the top originally rose minute figures delicately carved in the round of a man and two bulls: of them only the feet and hooves are left.
