Palette

E012-Ifn7226.jpg

Zoomorphic palette schematically shaped like a pair of falcons joined together, with their small heads facing outwards on the top. The feet and tails are summarily shown, and the feathers are marked by incisions. There is a hole for suspension at the junction of the heads. It shows evidence of use.
