The bowl has two central figures who have long hair, along with cross-hatched skirts. What sets these figures apart is that one of them is wrangling with serpents, as they are both gazing at the figure almost ready to strike. This figure is also standing in the middle of two lions, with their necks looking backward ready to see the scene unfold. The next central figure on the left appears two holding onto something, might it be the tails of the serpent that the other figure is handling? Or might they be entirely new serpents? This figure appears to be kneeling on the two-humped bulls. On the right end of the scene, we also see an up-ended bull being attacked by a lion and a large bird. Other motifs that appear are a scorpion; vegetation; cubs; a crescent moon; and rosette suns. <\/p>\n\n\n
