Tarbay János Gábor: Késő bronzkori depó Oltárc–Márki hegyről (Zala m.) Őskori manipulációk, szelektív és recens törések vizsgálata
76 János Gábor Tarbay on the reverse side of the object. Diameter: 20.4x11.1 cm; Maximum blade width: 3.2 cm; Thickness of the flange: 0.5 cm; Thickness of the blade: 0.5 cm; Weight: 134 g (fig. 8, 12). 13. Flanged sickle: Flanged sickle with spur, undecorated ribs and straight tang base. The tang is decorated with an Y-shaped rib in upside down position. A casting plug was preserved on the back of the blade. The blade is extremely narrow towards the tip. Traces of abrasion and sharpening were identified along the edge. Diameter: 17.6x10.7 cm; Maximum blade width: 3.8 cm; Thickness of the flange: 0.5 cm; Thickness of the blade: 0.2 cm; Weight: 124 g (fig. 9, 13) . 14. Flanged sickle: Handle fragment of a flanged sickle with three decorated ribs. According to the preliminary examination of the object, its breakage is most likely recent. Length: 6 cm; Width: 2.7 cm; Thickness of the flange: 0.6 cm; Weight: 32 g (fig. 9, 14) . 15. Sickle: Blade fragment of a sickle with two inner ribs under the dorsal rib of the blade. The origin of its bending is uncertain. Blow marks can be identified along its edge. Diameter: 12x5.2 cm; Maximum blade width: 4 cm; Thickness of the blade: 0.3 cm; Weight: 98 g (fig. 9, 15). 16. Tores: Circular-sectioned tores with rolled terminals. The complex decoration of the object consists of bundles of lines and “fishbone” like patterns. Based on the results of the preliminary macroscopic examination, the bending of the object is recent. Total diameter: 13.1x10.2 cm; Thickness: 0.5 cm; Weight: 41 g (fig. 9, 16). 17. Tores: Circular-sectioned tores with rolled terminals. The decoration of the object consists of bundles of lines and ‘fishbone’ like patterns. Due to taphonomic process or prehistoric abrasion the patterns are incomplete. Based on the preliminary macroscopic examination’s results, the bending and breakage of the terminals are recent. Total diameter: 19.8x11.7 cm; Thickness: 0.6 cm; Weight: 48 g (fig. 10, 17). 18. Tores: Circular-sectioned tores with rolled terminals. The surface of the object is decorated with slant array of lines. Grounded on the results of the preliminary macroscopic examination, the blow mark on the object is recent. One of its terminal was lost after restoration. Total diameter: 15.8x9.5 cm; Thickness: 0.7 cm; Weight: 65 g (fig. 10, 18). 19. Tores: Circular-sectioned tores with rolled terminals. The surface of the object is decorated with bundles of lines and ‘fish bone’ like patterns. One of its terminals is slightly bent. The entire surface of the object is well-polished. Total diameter: 13x13 cm; Inner diameter: 12.1 cm; Thickness: 0.6 cm; Weight: 43 g (fig. 11, 19). 20. Tores: Circular-sectioned tores with rolled terminals. The surface of the object is decorated with bundles of lines, X-shaped and ‘fish bone’ like patterns. The object’s bending is recent. Total diameter: 13.5x12.7 cm; Inner diameter: 12.5 cm; Thickness: 0.4 cm; Weight: 36 g (fig. 11, 20). 21. Tores: Circular-sectioned tores with rolled terminals. The surface of the object is decorated with bundles of lines, and X-shaped patterns. The decoration is incomplete due to prehistoric abrasion or natural processes. Total diameter: 14.3x12.6 cm; Thickness: 0.8 cm; Weight: 88 g (fig. 12, 21). 22. Tores: Circular-sectioned tores with rolled terminals and twisted body. Total diameter: 15.7x13.6 cm; Inner diameter: 14.6 cm; Thickness: 0.5 cm; Weight: 37 g (fig. 12, 22). 23. Tores: Undecorated, circular-sectioned tores with rolled terminals. One of its rolled terminal is missing due to recent breakage. The other rolled terminal was broken into parts after the restoration. Total diameter: 15.8x13.3 cm; Inner diameter: 14.7 cm; Thickness: 0.6 cm; Weight: 58 g (fig. 12, 23). 24. Armring: Semicircle-sectioned, slightly flat armring with rounded terminals, decorated with parallel lines and dots. Total diameter: 6.4x5.3 cm; Inner diameter: 5.8 cm; Thickness: 1.5x0.3 cm; Weight: 26 g (fig. 13, 24). 25. Armring: Semicircle-sectioned, slightly flat armring with rounded terminals, decorated with parallel and slant lines. The breakage of the object is recent. Total diameter: 6.5x5.9 cm; Inner diameter: 5.9 cm; Thickness: 1.3x0.5 cm; Weight: 38 g (fig. 13, 25). 26. Armring: Semicircle-sectioned, slightly flat armring with rounded terminals, decorated with parallel and slant lines. The decoration is incomplete due to intensive abrasion. Total diameter: 5.2x5.1 cm; Inner diameter: 5.2 cm; Thickness: 1.2x0.4 cm; Weight: 23 g (fig. 13, 26).
