Indus civilization (-2600 -1900 BC), superb and rare steatite cylinder bucket with an incised motif representing a helmeted man standing and holding a spear on his left shoulder, a mythical bird standing on its legs and a symbol between the two.
The Indus civilization, also called the Harappan civilization (from the name of the ancient city Harappa), is a Bronze Age civilization whose territory extended around the Indus River Valley; to the west of the Indian subcontinent, currently Pakistan to simplify.
Abrasions due to age and soil incrustations; nothing abnormal compared to the great antiquity of this magnificent piece.
