Body fragment, with decoration on both sides. On one, a battle scene, with a crouching archer (body and legs, quiver), hoplite attacking to right (legs with greaves, part of chiton and shield), and a collapsing warrior (part of shield, leg, and spear). On the other, foreleg of a donkey and legs and tail of a satyr walking to right. Between the two scenes (in the handle zone), palmette-lotus patter. Under the picture field, ground line and two more horizontal bands, frieze of upright interlaced lotus buds, another pair of horizontal lines, and upright rays. Interior, undecorated.
