v2.c31.53

Among the other finds special mention should be made of a crescent-shaped potsherd, the shape being artificially given by grinding the edges, bearing on one side an engraved scene of a tiger attacking a buffalo from behind. On the other side is engraved a horizontal row of six lozenges with oblique lines inside the upper half of each lozenge and in the open space between the two lozenges below. Equally important are the finds of: a worn-out terracotta oval-shaped cake; a heart-shaped potsherd; a carrot-type cone of clay from House 20; a fragment of a terracotta rule with a division of 11 mm marked by two incised lines; a circular potsherd bearing deeply engraved cross-mark on both the sides; a fragment of a copper/bronze celt; and a gold-lead bead.
