Full Artifact Description
Very coarse clay: black within and red brown on surface which has a finer smooth slip. Friezes stamped from a cylinder on top of rim and on incised just below rim. On top of rim going from left to right can be distinguished: the forepart of a hound running to the right which has overtaken and is biting a hare which is also running to the righ into what is probably a net; two rams butting one another, with a spray of leaves beneath each; a nude male running to the right with a lagobolos in each hand, the hind part of a hound running to the right. Int. frieze seems to have been impressed from same cylinder: there are preserved part of the right one of the pair of rams, the arms of the man, parts of the hound, hare and net and the hind leg of the left one of the pair of rams.
Said to have been found in a grave near Falerii. Purchased in Rome.
Gazda: Rim fragment from a platter or brazier. Clay, impasto, cylinder-impressed decoration.
