Iconographic Definition 1998-7-22rAH ovis hindquarters, TYPE II [tentative] [Input file: I722RAH.J / I722RAH.-J]
Iconographic Description 1998-7-22rAH Each leg is modeled in a light relief, a detail not seen in the AK corpus. [Input file: I722RAH.J / I722RAH.-J]
1998-7-22rAH The body-join is herbivore, solidly founded. The knee-joint may be expressed below the break in the legs. There is a slight taper to the knee joint from where this piece would join the torso.The legs are circular in section. There is a light incision from the top of the [presumed] rump to where the legs join. The tail, if tail it be, is abraded; yet it appears terminated and rather full. [Input file: I722RAH.J / I722RAH.-J]
1998-7-22rAH The hindquartes are contained within an open, slightly outcurving U. [Input file: I722RAH.J / I722RAH.-J]
1998-7-22rAH There is no appreciable curve to the hindquarters where they join the legs, making this identification problematic. The break from the torso is clean, vertical, a rather unusual detail as regards the AK corpus; usually, at least a portion of the torso remains with the hindquarters,as they are formed of a single piece of clay. [Input file: I722RAH.J / I722RAH.-J]
1998-7-22rAH There is some danger in applying the AK typology to this find; it must be taken as a starting-point only for interpretation. [Input file: I722RAH.J / I722RAH.-J]
Notes on typology 1998-7-22rAH In all likelihood, the orientation applied in this interpretaton is correct or at least plausible. Another view would see this piece as the back of a muzzle with broken horns. In such a case, the piece would not be well-founded. [Input file: I722RAH.J / I722RAH.-J]

Manufacturing
Assumptn 1998-7-22rAH Here it appears that the hindlegs may have been fashioned as separate pieces,then joined to the torso. This alone might account for the clean break. [Input file: I722RAH.J / I722RAH.-J]
