Side Museum feb 2015 5942.jpg

On the side of a sarcophagus I noticed what must be a sacrificial scene. I never knew how that was done precisely, in this particular case a metal rod seems to be hammered into the head of the sacrificial animal. In essence this method is still used in slaughterhouses, though with pneumatic or similar force.
