Description

A terracotta group shows a vehicle with a curved body pulled by four animals with long heads and pointed ears, set on an oval base. A standing figure in the vehicle raises an arm toward a disc-shaped object, and a taller figure with a conical head rises behind. The surface is pale grey and worn in places, and one solid wheel with a central hub is visible on the right.
