יהוסף

Yehosef

יהוסף

Fragmentary, partially restored ossuary has low feet, red wash, and fragmentary vaulted lid. Ornamentation, on the chest's front side, consists of two metopes in a zigzag frame, each containing a six-petalled rosette within line and zigzag circles. Triglyph replaced by palm tree with triangular-notched roots and stylized, ascending and spreading branches. Vertical lines delimit foot of tree and link circles to base of frame. יהוסף appears in the left metope, and a long string of undecipherable characters -- horizontal, then slanting downward -- appears in the right one.
