Notes on support and decorations | Bronze rod ending with a snake’s head, pierced by a hole. On the opposite end, a regular recess was probably used for the joint with another piece. The exterior of this end is decorated with two dots and circles. This rod is interpretable as a handle, probably connected to a container. The presence of a hole suggests that it was hung. Full cast. |
