Description | Fragment of a "cut-out" akroterion preserving complete small curved pointed member, two roughly flattened sides, tapering slightly upwards, one roughly flattened irregularly curving edge, which by one convex arc and two successive concave shallow arcs forms a beak-like projection with a pointed end. There is a flat broad scar at base probably from attachment to topmost part of ridgepole tile. Another break goes perpendicular to the base break, between the lowest concave arc and bottom of the piece. Probably the piece formed a lateral decorative extensions, next to the tile, of main part of the akroterion. |
