durom.2015.45 | durom.2015.45-ss.jpg | data/raw/images/oriental/2015 | Dymkovo toy. One of the oldest Russian folk art handicrafts, Dymkovo toys (Russian: Дымковская игрушка), also known as the Vyatka toys or Kirov toys are moulded painted clay figures of people, animals or imaginary creatures (sometimes in the form of a whistle) made in a village of Dymkovo, Kirov Oblast. About 400 years' worth of tradition of Dymkovo toys was transmitted from generation to generation exceptionally by women lineage and traces back its origin to agricultural calendar holidays. _x000D__x000D_
This example of Dymkovo toys depicts a vivid and cheerful cow. The figure stands on four long broadly spread legs (left leg in the back had been broken off, the part is present) which slightly narrows to the soles. The black interwoven tail is attached the right leg in the back. The cow has a proportional body with long neck and a nice head with pointed horns in orange. The top of the head is decorated with horizontal black braid. Nicely done ears are attached to an almost cylindrical muzzle in the same line as black painted eyes. A curved black dewlap goes from the muzzle to the end of the brisket. A yellow udder with four teats is moulded near the back legs. The figure is painted in white with patterns of orange circles and black shapes. It is traditionally decorated with now greyed square patches of gilt on the both horns and four legs._x000D__x000D_
A white paper sticker with Russian inscription which is indecipherable in some places is attached to the bottom of the cow's body. The Russian inscription: '... РСФСР г. Киров автор Ф. ...'; English translation 'RSFSR (stands for Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic) g. (stands for city) Kirov author F.'. According to this information the toy was made in the period 1917 - 1993 in city Kirov. | 487toys

durma.2020.3.153 | durma.2020.3.153.ff.jpg | data/raw/images/fulling_mill/2020 | A fragment of a Roman copper-alloy object in the form of an axe dating to the second or third century AD, part of the Piercebridge Assemblage. It may be part of a skeuomorphic plate brooch in the form of an axe, an axe-headed pin dating to approximately the same period or a miniature axe of the type catalogued by Kiernan 2009, 220-267). The fragment comprises a flat plate resembling an axe. The axe-blade, wedge and hemispherical-section haft are all rendered. The haft appears to be broken at its terminal. The break is old. On the underside of the plate, in the area just below the wedge is a small, rectangular extension, possibly the remains of the attachment loops for a hinged brooch pin. However, its function is not altogether clear. The fragment measures 26mm in length and 22mm in width. The axe blade area of the plate measures 2mm in thickness, except at the point of the rectangular extension where it measures 4mm in thickness. The haft measures 3mm in thickness._x000D__x000D_
_x000D__x000D_
Axe-shaped brooches, pins and miniature axes are frequently found on Romano-British temple sites and are thought to have religious resonances. Axe-headed brooches tend to be enamelled and this example is not, although Mackreth 2011, 180 does record three examples which are not. He suggests that non-enamelled axe brooches may be later than enamelled ones and notes that the only examples with contextual information date to the period AD 180-350 (Camerton) and the late third century (Nettleton). A similar fragmentary example without enamel was found at Aldborough and is published as No. 343 (Fig. 33) Bishop, M.C.(1996) Finds from Roman Aldborough.

durma.2020.3.2410 | durma.2020.3.2410.ff.jpg | data/raw/images/fulling_mill/2020 | An iron axehead, possibly Roman in date. The blade is triangular and wedge shaped in section. It is sharp and appears unused. The haft is circular and is corroded in places. The butt of the axe is rectangular in section and tapers slightly. The terminal of the butt is distorted implying either miscasting or use. The length of the axehead from butt to blade is 210mm. The width of the blade is 73mm whilst the width of the butt is 24mm._x000D__x000D_
_x000D__x000D_
This example is particularly notable for its unusual form. Its basic outline is that of a Hanemann (2015, Abb. 294) Type 3A (Manning, 1985, fig. 3, Type 2), albeit with a slightly curved front face, but this tool is distinguished by having a long rectangular-sectioned extension at the butt. The narrow rectangular lugs around the eye may suggest a 1st century date (Pietsch, 1983, Abb. 26), but the only close parallel known to the author is an undated example from Saint-Martin-en-Campagne, on the north coast of France (Champion, 1916, Pl. II, 18173; Hoffman, 1985, Pl. XX, 34). It is possible that this axe was imported to Britain from the Continent, although it is no less likely that the Saint-Martin-en-Campagne example moved from Britain to the French coast._x000D__x000D_
_x000D__x000D_
The purpose of the extended poll is unclear. An extended 'hammer' poll is not unusual on Roman axes, although only a few have deliberately-formed hammer heads at the butt (Goodman, 1964, fig. 14b; Holmes, 2003, Illus. 107; Pietsch, 1983, Taf. 2, 31). These were presumably used for driving in nails, or as striking surfaces for driving the axe like a wedge, but are usually much shorter and stouter than on the present object, and are rarely heavily burred. Rare 'marking axes' (Baratta, 2007, fig. 5; Hanemann, 2014, Abb. 294, Type 10) have raised letters at the butt, allowing them to act as dies, although no letters were observed on the butt of NCL-9F7911. Some forms of dolabra/pickaxe very strongly resemble woodworking axes, but with extended pick blades on the poll (Curle, 1911, Pl. LVII; Hanemann, 2014, Abb. 357, Type 1B; Pietsch, 1983, Taf. 3, 42). These are associated with the military, and may have been used for clearing land, digging, or for rolling logs (Hanemann, 2014, p. 419; Manning, 1970, p. 19, 1976, p. 28; Rees, 1979, p. 312), and it is notable that the Saint-Martin-en-Campagne example follows a similar curve to dolabra picks. It may therefore be a military or woodsman's tool, although this does not explain the burring at the tip. Hoffman (1985, p. 24) has suggested that this type of axe may have been a butcher's pole axe; a combination tool with a narrow pin at the poll for stunning the animal, and an axe blade for removing the hoofs (Salaman, 1975, p. 50). However, given the apparent burring at the butt of NCL-9F7911, it seems likely that the extension acted as a hammer head for striking hard materials. Narrow pin polls are also present on some modern shipwright's adzes, where they are used to drive nails below the surface of the wood (Salaman, 1975, pp. 28-9), and it is possible that NCL-9F7911 was used in the same way as a maintenance tool. | 180axes

The body is slightly faceted. It flare at one end to form a hemispherical-section terminal which when fitted together would have been circular. Both measure 18mm in length, a maximum of 14mm in width, and 6mm in thickness.Compare with a wax spatula handle from Lank-Latum, Germany illustrated by Boeselager (1989, Abb. 12, 229) which although solid rather than composite is similar in form_x000D__x000D_

The large feet of the figure are well defined and on both feet between the big toe and second toe a rounded ring is present. The scene on the front face of the plinth contains three monks, one on the right of an alms bowl and two to the left. The monk on the right hand side of the scene wears a plain robe and is facing left towards the bowl with hands clasped. The monk on the left hand side of the bowl is wearing the same robe and is facing right in a similar posture. The monk on the far left is facing forward with his left hand holding his robe at the waist. The alms bowl is placed on a draped platform below a draped canopy. The scene is framed by a Corinthian pilaster to the left and above by an enriched pointed leaf pattern torus. The left face of the plinth the panel has been bisected into triangles each containing a small indented triangle. The lines of bisection are crudely carved, but the small indented triangles are not. The right face of the plinth is not squared and angles back and on this face is a tenon where this piece may have been attached to another sculptural fragment. This fragment interestingly combines aniconic representation of the Buddha through his alms bowl relic as well as iconic representation through the large standing figure. | 281figures
