Three rows of ornament. In the central one, leaping fishAncient metalwork includes a large category of objects made specifically for the tomb. They are usually characterized by the flimsiness of the material, since the pieces would not be subject to wear. This object represents a short band that would have been placed on the forehead. Others were put over the eyes or mouth. The types of funerary adornment remained quite consistent over time, so that they are extremely difficult to date. This example shows a recurrent phenomenon of several bands of ornament, with those at the top and bottom cut through. The motif of the leaping fish suggests a date in the Late Bronze Age.
