  • Rounded, mottled object from Amathus shown as a single photograph on a card mount
Description, scan 2
A single rounded object fills most of the frame, roughly spherical, with a mottled surface of pale and dark patches and a darker lower edge. The grey-toned photograph is mounted on a pale card with blue marks along the edges and a small printed label in the lower right corner. The surface looks pitted and uneven, and no clear bone features or joints can be made out.
