Description

Rather crude scarab, which is peculiar in having its reverse carved in relief (a sunken impression). The back and the legs are extremely schematised. The inscription represents a four-legged animal facing left, possibly a dog.

Scarabée assez grossier qui a la particularité d'avoir un plat en relief (donc une impression en creux). Le dos est très schématisé ainsi que les pattes. L'inscription représente un quadrupède face à gauche, peut-être un chien.
