Notes on support and decorationsVery badly preserved offering table, broken into several fragments.
The anterior face of the table is the only one with photograph. It is divided into three fragments (a, b, c). Between two standing ibexes, there is an empty space at the end of the gutter, that could have been in form of bull's head, but no trace of it remains (for a possible comparison see Kamna 21). A fragmentary text runs on the edge of the table, above Kamna 14 A and is called Kamna 14 A bis.
Kamna 14 B is composed by two fragments, with a lacuna between them (a, b).
