Description

Small stone carving of a farm scene. Several long rectangular buildings with peaked roofs and carved windows and doors occupy the centre of the piece, forming a yard in which two large oxen are yoked to a plough controlled by a human figure. Around the back of one of the buildings sit two figures eating and drinking. Beside them are a cow and calf. On the opposite side of the object is a barn with a courtyard in which stand four small animals. Along two edges stand herds of sheep and cattle in rows facing outwards. Animals and buildings are carved to be a similar height.
