Notes on items 2014-03-30 rAH    Depending upon the manner in which one holds a figurine, different interpretations can be offered. What is front? What is back? I do believe the excavator has reversed the caudal and cranial views of this object. The manner in which the object is photographed, however, is confusing. One has a first impression; then that impression is reversed because the object is flipped and photographed from an angle that does not logically "follow" the previous one. Now, V21d4520 and V21d4521 do indeed bring to mind certain animal representations. Unfortunately, the manner of photographing the object cancels out any first impression a viewer might have of the object. The remaining two photographs are so foreshortened and/or washed out by the lighting that it is impossible to analyze this figurine further. [Input: Y401JW1.j]
