Figure2827/65

A small, dense, nude figurine of a standing man. The male has bent legs, is missing feet, and has extended arms bent at the elbows. The hands are outstretched with openings, as if they had been crafted to hold something. The facial features display sloping eyes, a worn nose, a small and straight mouth, and a full chin. The pose, open hands, and musculature suggest this may be a charioteer figure? The surface of the object is pitted.

Amulet2827/56

A miniature glass amulet depicting a human head. The face is beige-coloured, and the head has been adorned with a blue hat. The hat contains white and yellow swirls, and these colours were probably mixed into the blue glass as the object was being created. There is a small hole at the upper tip of the hat, likely created so a necklace or chain could be threaded through. One eye is blue, created from the same glass as the hat. The back of the amulet is slightly concave. (On a stone and metal mount.)
