This is a restored clay plate found at the Hypogeum of Hal-Saflieni. It has a small flat base and an outward turned rim. The interior has a scratched decoration representing a number of animals. There are eight bulls and two goats. There are some other scratches but they are unidentifiable. The scratched lines were filled with a white substance (which has mostly faded away) to enhance them. An illustration of the exterior can be seen at the bottom of the page. Maximum diameter of the plate is 25 cm (10 inches). |
