Dinner scene fragment

The basalt, or perhaps granite, fragment belongs to another dining scene. A seated female is visible from chest down to the ankles wearing a fringed garment. In front of him is a small boy. The fragment is 44 cm high and 45 cm wide. A date in the 8th century BCE has been suggested. It is in the inventory of the Istanbul Archaeology Museum.
