Archaeological description
Poids (?) en alliage cuivreux en forme de sanglier couché sur un socle (rectangulaire ?). La crinière et les défenses sont bien visibles. Il porte une tache non patinée sur le dos, ce qui pourrait suggérer qu’un anneau de transport s’y trouvait à l’origine.
Autopsy
No

Additional comment
L’inventaire de l’Antikensammlung se demande si le numéro indiqué par E. H. Toelken ne correspond pas plutôt au n. Fr. 2486.
