Faience stirrup jar
Not on view
Faience was first imported to Cyprus from Egypt in the Late Bronze Age. Faience vases were also made locally in a style that reflected Egyptian, Levantine, and Aegean influence. The shape of this flask is Aegean, and the bull motif is similar to Egyptian representations. Most of the original painted decoration has worn off.
