Lot 70 | Skythischer Stabaufsatz (Rassel mit Raubvogelkopf), 7. - 6. Jhdt. v. Chr.
Auf 12,5 cm Länge erhaltener vierkantiger Eisenstab, der in eine knapp 3 cm lange Tülle eines bronzenen, kegelförmigen Aufsatzes mündet. Dieser von einem stilisierten Raubvogelkopf, wohl einen Adler darstellend, bekrönt. Der hohle Kegel mit zwei horizontalen Reihen von je vier Öffnungen durchbrochen, die "Pfeilspitzen mit Widerhaken" gleichen. Im Inneren befand sich ein nicht mehr erhaltenes Objekt, das bei Bewegung Geräusche machte. An der Kante des Kegels an einer Stelle Gussfehler, wunderschöne dunkelgrüne Patina des bronzenen Kegelaufsatzes. Wohl Zierde eines Wagens. Gesamtlänge 29 cm.
Eindrucksvolles Beispiel des frühskythischen Tierstils von archaischer Ausstrahlungskraft.
Provenienz: Ostdeutsche Privatsammlung.
A Scythian stick attachment (rattle with bird of prey head), 7th - 6th century B.C.
A Scythian stick attachment (rattle with bird of prey head), 7th - 6th century B.C.
Preserved at 12.5 cm in length, a square iron rod opening into a spout of a cone-shaped bronze attachment just under 3 cm long. This is crowned by a stylised bird of prey's head, probably representing an eagle. The hollow cone is pierced with two horizontal rows of four openings each, resembling "barbed arrowheads". On the inside, there was an object, no longer preserved, which made noise when moved. The edge of the cone has a casting defect in one place. Beautiful dark green patina of the bronze cone top. Probably ornament of a carriage. Total length 29 cm.
Impressive example of the early Scythian animal style of archaic charisma.
