Description (summary) 2004-07-15 ap fragment of clay artifact. At a first sight it seems a figurine representing the head of a cow. However since the object is cave (int. diam. 1.1) and there is a hole in the mouth of the animal, it could be a spout but unfinished (the object is in fact non completely cave). One of the ears is recognizable as well as the hump. The surface is very encrusted but it's possible to recognize traces of black colour. [Input: O717AP2.j]
