vessels

Fragment of a terracotta moulded vessel in the form of the head of Dionysos; the lower section is broken. The god wears a mitra and fruit in his hair; on the top of the head is a small vessel, and on either side the locks of hair are styled into two small handles. The surface is covered with a pink-cream coloured slip and there are traces of plaster on the surface.
