Sacrificial knife
A flange with alternating straight and T-shaped scores of the type commonly found on early ritual vessels decorates the upper idge of this weapon. Along the blade proper, just below the flange, is a band of head-turning dragons with bottle horns on a ground of squared spirals. This decor is in low relief. Patina green.
