Description

Fragment of a lamp

with only the handle and part of the top surface of the body preserved. Decoration includes two protruding half knobs

around each of which are four close

incised lines resembling triglyphs (although the two closest to the handle only have two incised lines

rather than four). The central hole has a shallow curve down to it

and there is a protruding line half way between the hole and the edge of the shallow circular area. Core of the lamp is bright orange

with traces of red/sepia paint; at least three different fragments glued together. The handle has a single groove going down its centre.
