Miniature Ibex
Iranian
This pendant is in the shape of a stylized ram or ibex standing frontally. The animal’s short, simple horns curl slightly backward on top of the head, not quite like either a ram or an ibex. It has a simple triangular head with no other details rendered, short rounded legs that taper to a point, and a downward-pointing tail. The body tapers toward the midsection, and then expands to the rump. There is a transverse hole through the body for suspension rather than a loop.
