23.11.31Q There are breaks at the top left and bottom right of the shield rim (indicating a missing spear). The left leg has broen off at the top of the thigh, and the right at knee level.
50.3.1 Originally acquired as a box of fragments in 1950 and restored and repaired in 1978. Repainted at breaks. Glaze remains shiny. Possibly retouched paint (?).
51.4.6 Two fragments, rejoined, from the body and rim of the cup, in the shape of an elongated hexagon. Chipped on the breaks; slightly worn on the interior; slight gray adhesions on the upper left corner of the exterior and the lower part of the interior.
E.65.3 Complete, but repaired. There three large breaks in the pot that have been repaired but are still very evident near the rim. Although the surphace is still smooth a large amount of the red pigment on the out side has worn away while similar occurances inside have meant that some of the decoration has been lost.
REDMG:1958.112.1 Comprised of ten or more rejoined fragments (breaks are concentrated around the neck, handle, and foot); stained all over, with pitting and scratches.
REDMG:2004.97.1 Comprised of 30 or more fragments, rejoined and with some plaster restorations; body is joined to stem with a new (rusted) screw. Evidence of modern breaks (on plaster joins). Thick dark grey adhesions on base. Iridescence and other slight deposits on interior.
