Stamp with Running Rabbit and Hare

Double-ended terracotta stamp, with a representation of a running rabbit or hare at each end. The animals are very similar, but one is larger and may have been intended to represent a hare, with the smaller animal a rabbit. The animals are stylized. On one end, the ears are broken off.
