| 13500 | 31-17-1 | (none) | (none) | Terracotta bedstead. Miniature. Fragment. Design in relief representing house facade or possibly a door to a shrine (?) with a tripod on either side and a human figure standing on each tripod. The door panel consists of wooden (?) uprights and horizontals which form the frame work and the panel itself is divided at intervals by horizontal bars between which are globular pellets. Between the globules are fine vertical parallel lines. Possibly this is intended to represent a fluted door decorated with circular metal bosses, or the globules may be metal bands interwoven like matting. Design may simply be intended to represent a tasseled rug or matting hung over door-posts. The most obvious interpretation of the designs on either side of the door is to consider them as tripods modelled out of perspective; but it is conceivable that this may be panelling and the figures above perhaps formed a dado running round the facade. As the design is on a bed it is not unreasonable to suppose that we are viewing the door of the haven with eunuchs (?) on either side. Feather-like modelling on one of the figures may indicate the fringe of the skirt. The upright is decorated with the conventional matting design with a star pattern in each corner. [drawing] | |
| 13505 | (none) | 1930,1213.571 | (none) | Dog. Miniature. Unbaked clay. Crude modelling. Dark green. Tail curled over back. Legs broken, rough head with not attempt at naturalization. [drawing 1:1] | |
| 13506 | 33-35-44 | (none) | (none) | Terracotta figurine. Bearded male figure carrying a monkey on his shoulders. Monkey, head and arms of man in profile, torso of man full face. Arms bent at elbow, forearm parallel with ground. In his left hand the man holds a rope which is attached to the monkey's neck. Figure missing below waist but probably the man was leading a second monkey. Example is of importance chronologically for it was found in the Larsa filling and against the inner face of the SE wall of the Nebuchadnezzar Temenos. The rubbish stratum is well dated to the _Larsa_ Period. It seems therefore that this figure is also represented on the Asshur-Nasir-Pal reliefs was already in the Assyrian period a cult object of a considerable antiquity and was not simply (as formerly supposed) a man leading in tribute to the king. Common type. | |
