Small crescentic hull with straight gunwales. The stempost ends in an outward facing bird head device. The inside has a painted keel line and three ribs/frames. On the exterior, there is a painted line running from the tip of the animal head along the gunwales to the tip of the stempost. On each side there are eight vertical lines. The fact that the number of stripes is not the same on the interior and the exterior of the model suggests that the latter cannot be read as ribs. The model is unpublished so that caution is warranted in making too much of the figurehead, given that it is completely different in appearance from the rest of the Aegean repertoire, which shows a hybrid creature characterized by a prominent recurving beak and a large eye

From a large chamber tomb cemetery with over a hundred burials spanning from LH IIIA1 to early LH IIIC.
