Copper alloy mount. Cast markedly concavo-convex hollow mask in the form of a maned lion’s head. The nose and jowls are naturalistically rendered, the eyes are represented by protruding oval panels and an oval aperture – whether arising from mis-casting, damage or design – is an open oval hole. The former option is perhaps most likely as another gap appears at the top of the head. An outwardly bevelled rim represents the mane. Possibly from furniture or from a container used to contain a cremation. The lion was persistently linked with death in the Mediterranean world…
