ITEM: Bowl-shaped copper alloy object with 5 holes
MATERIAL: Copper Alloy
Photograph 98slvf1825 by Kerkenes
DESCRIPTION
Bowl-shaped copper alloy object with 5 holes and one extant bent nail, complete. Highly polished interior and exterior, hammer marks on interior. Original object recut in antiquity, as attested by the sharp rim profile and uneven top. Object appears to have been slightly deformed in this process. 5 secondary holes, each 1 mm diameter, were drilled from the exterior at irregular intervals. One small nail, approx. 2 cm long, remains, point inward and, apparently, intentionally bent. Original object probably had higher walls. Neither original form nor recut function is clear.
DIMENSIONS
Diameter 178 mm, height 40 mm, thickness 1.5 mm, diameter of holes 3 to 5 mm.

DESCRIPTION
Sheet metal hoofed animal (ibex) figure - incomplete, lower half of ibex? Facing right, it stands on its rear right hoof, the inner left leg being raised. The short tail, which certainly identifies the animal as an ibex or wild goat, is extended in a raised position. The back is arched in a way that makes it possible, but not certain, that the head was turned. The piece is complete apart from minor portions of the left leg and hoof. It was attached, presumably to wood, by means of three holes, one at the top of each hoof and one in the tail. Muscles and joints are articulated by indented lines and very slightly raised circular bosses, thereby enhancing the lifelike appearance, may represent lower half ibex; rivet holes.
