  Seal in the shape of a Pig

  Seal in the shape of a Pig

  This seal, modeled in the shape of a stylized pig (the head is complete, but the body is a simple half-circle), was carved from a cream-colored limestone; it is pierced by a hole and was therefore intended to be worn as a pendant (necklace or bracelet).

  Bronze Figure of a Man wearing a Chlamyd

  Bronze Figure of a Man wearing a Chlamyd

  The statuette is made of solid bronze. It depicts a standing male figure, clad in a short cloak (which the Greeks called a chlamys) fastened over the right shoulder with a circular fibula. The man extends his right arm towards the viewer, whilst his left arm is entirely concealed beneath the cloak. In his visible hand, clenched into a fist, he held an attribute. His feet are clad in high ankle boots, fastened with incised laces. His hair, cut short, covers his head like a cap; a few strands are indicated by regular engravings. A button in the centre of the skull probably served to secure a headdress.
