Cock-Headed Anguipes
Description
Cock-headed Anguipes, nude except for kilt, head to right, right hand holds whip almost horizontally across the body. On left arm large shield, so held that the inside is seen; on it the vowels ιαηιεηιoυω. The specimen is unusual in two points. Both snaky legs turn to right, one crossing the other; and the exaggeration of the cock's comb and wattles makes it easy to take the head for that of an ass.

Helios in Four-Horse Chariot
Description
Helios in four-horse chariot, seen in front view. The god's head is turned to left, right hand raised, whip over left shoulder. At first inspection it looks as if his body from the waist down were that of a serpent; but the curious curve may be intended for the box of the chariot. As usual in such designs, two of the horses are turned to left, the other two to right, but the heads of the pole horses are turned toward each other. The wheels are shown as in side view under the two pole horses. Crude work. Bonner, SMA: page 282; plate VIII (D. 174).

Title
Human-Headed Anguipes
Description
Frontal view of human-headed Anguipes, but according to Bonner, head is indistinct but probably meant for that of a cock. Below the abruptly narrowed waist are two thin lines, which were meant for legs or else for the beginning of the snake coils; but at the position where the feet would be is a kilt from which snakes curve upward on each side, their heads opposite the waist of the human part. A very strange representation of the Anguipes, apparently without parallel. The right hand holds an uncertain triangular object somewhat like a rhyton or drinking horn (the scratches over it are adventitious). In the left hand is a torch, or possibly a hammer. Round the snake coils is an inscription, apparently in the same unknown characters as those on the reverse. Bonner, SMA: page 282-3; plate IX (D. 178).

Harpocrates Kneeling on a Lotus Flower
Description
Harpocrates kneeling to left on lotus flower with two buds, right hand to lips, left holding flail. Scarabs, hawks, and goats in the usual arrangement; but below, the engraver has so slighted his pattern that it is doubtful whether he meant to represent crocodiles or snakes; probably the former. Very crude work, of interest only because of the unusual kneeling posture of Harpocrates and the absence of a boat or raft. Bonner, SMA: page 287-8; Plate X (D. 207).

Phoenix on a column Surrounded by Animals
Description
Phoenix crowned with a nimbus and seven rays, standing on a globe, which rests on an altar made of a single column supporting a broad top. Phoenix is surrounded by animals. Above, a scarab with outstretched wings; below, under the altar, a crocodile in profile, to right. At each side, a swallow facing inwards; a scorpion crawling to top; rearing cobra with ’hands’ raised in a protective gesture. On each side of the bird, characteres shaped like inverted ’S’-s imitating the Chnoubis-sign. Bonner suggests that these two curves shaped like reversed 'S's between the scorpions and Phaenix may be meant for small snakes or worms. Together with the globe, the two diagonal notches on top of the column create an akhet-sign (sun rising on the horizon). Bonner, SMA: page 270; plate V (D. 103).
