Description

The canopic head, whose find spot is unknown, is dated between 600 and 575 BC and was made of impasto in Etruria. The head has a cylindrical neck and is wearing a mask. The eyes are almond-shaped, and the nose is pointed. Canopic heads with masks are dated to the beginning of the 6th century BC. At that time, they were produced on the potters wheel and the mask was added afterwards. The back of the head shows some drilling holes which might have served to attach a headdress or a cap. The ears also show drillings which served to attach metal spirals and simple earrings. Earrings are considered as objects from the female sphere, therefore the heard is ascribed to a deceased woman. While canopic vessels in Egypt were used for the mummification of the guts in Etruria they served to store the ash of the deceased.

Expected crawler behaviour

Use a stable, truthful User-Agent with product/version and a working contact URL. Across all IP addresses and HTTP connections used by one crawler identity, allow no more than 5 requests in flight and wait at least 20 seconds between request starts. Crawl URLs listed in the catalog sitemap, including file pages and download URLs when they are published, use conditional requests, honor Retry-After, and apply exponential backoff after errors.

The welcome page may link to the interactive repository for human navigation. Automated clients must not treat that human link as a catalog crawl target.

Read the live machine-readable crawler policy before and during a crawl. Stop crawling when it reports CPU or memory utilization at or above 80% and 80% respectively.
