Description Fragment of finial-like handle of a buccheroid vessel with top, rounded edge bent slightly out over front, relief-decorated surface. Front surface has very blurred, rounded relief of a potnia thereon figure with oval head, roughly indicated chest and downward curving arms which appear to hold front paws of two long felines whose bodies cover the female figure, facing inward and extend to bottom of relief surface - rounded forms are pws, chests, heads, haunches, and thin hind legs. Definitely indicated by incision are eyes and mouth of a figure. Back of handle at the top, justting out, and extending about one-half of the way down, is part of a flat curved rectangular section to which is attached, down its center a projecting ridge - triangular in cross section.
