Lot 2244
An Interesting and Varied "Archeological" Lot. Greece and Etruria, c. 1500-300 BC. Most unusual is the situla made of cast and wrought lead. Vessel of biconical profile with looped bail handle. Situla rim tattered, with some losses, and handle detached. Acquired in Elba in 1966. Also purchased at Elba, at the same time, two simple small redware pots (probably Etruscan) which the soil's minerals had fused together. From Greece, two Geometric Period bronze fibula fragments. Also 8 pottery shards acquired in the 1960's from a Mycenaean site, plus a spindle whore in a purplish schistose or shale-like stone. Half of the shards have paint. Good study material, or "cabinet curiosities." Lot of 15 pieces.
Estimated Value $300 - 500.
