Archer beside a Large Wheel
A bow-bearing figure occupies the left side of an irregular fragment beside a large wheel-like field of intersecting lines. The relief’s broken edge interrupts the surrounding scene. Waddell uses the reproduction within his proposed reading of early kings and symbols. The visible fragment and its interpretation are kept distinct, without naming a missing complete composition.
