Glyptic (A.I.2631)

Glyptic find from Ayia Irini: a small rounded stone object with a mottled surface, shown against a pale background — Photograph: Swedish Cyprus Expedition, 1927–31. Medelhavsmuseet, Stockholm, C04079c. Public domain (CC0).

Description

A single small object photographed against a pale background, its shape a rounded, elongated block with a rough, mottled surface. Dark patches and lighter ridges cover the top and sides, and the lower edge looks flattened. Any engraved design is hard to make out at this scale, so the surface cannot be confirmed as carved.
