The End of the Season picture for summer 2017

Ivory head

Head made of ivory, found in the Ceremonial Precinct, Building 7050. Only part of this head, which may have belonged to an anthropomorphic statuette, remains, including the face, the left ear, the neck and part of the headdress. Its fragmentary state makes it difficult to establish whether it belonged to a standing or seated figure or perhaps even to a composite creature, such as a sphinx. It is most likely dated to the Late Bronze Age.
