Abstract
This image depicts details of the Late Minoan Peak Sanctuary Rhyton, a ritual vessel made of green steatite and found in the excavation of the Minoan palace of Zakros. In this close-up, a relief scene of four wild goats are visible toward the top of the image, with what is the central part of a tripartite building, resembling a closed door, decorated with spirals below them.
