Wall fragment. Glaze pitted on inside, much flaked on outside. Max. dim. 0.057.
Man or woman (draped legs) seated to left, holding a staff or spear (part of shaft), accompanied by a lion (head and neck). Dilute glaze: mane. White: two dots on shaft.
The composition may have looked something like the one on an unattributed neck-amphora found at Delos, 59 A: there a woman sits on a rock to left next to which a lion brings down a deer; before her is another woman, also to left (Délos XXI, pl. 23).
