# Pottery antefixae

The pottery antefix of Chinese type has a semi-tubular shape, with its outer end closed by a circular patera. The patera is decorated with a finely designed Gorgon head in relief. Unfortunately, the semi-tubular portion is broken away at the tail end and one side of this object, which is actually a roof tile.

- **Kind:** artefact
- **Date:** 1000–1199 CE
