ninawillburger, A Sphinx (height 4.8 cm) carved from #ivory and with face made of amber. Found in the Grafenbühl burial near Asperg, a rich burial mound from the late Hallstadt period, dating ca. 500 BC. The Sphinx is a product of a
#Greek workshop in Italy (Taranto?).
It was used as an applique and attached to a piece of furniture.
