Terracotta cinerary urn decorated at the shoulder with four painted and gilded bull-griffin protomes. The conical cover is surmounted by a miniature vase. Human remains and cloth were once contained inside the urn, now stored separately. Also inside the urn were two obols and a terracotta figure of a siren in an attitude of mourning.
