Northeast Anta

Northeast Anta

Fragments preserving faded colors with almost no trace of black arc-lines surviving; anta is treated as a unit with red uprights at the two corners and vertical arcs starting from each end. That is, a very small section of an arc (white) springs from the upright, is bordered by a blue arc (in which black scallop-lines are still faintly visible), then a large red arc succeeds. The pattern is then broken by two black upright lines which mark of the central third of the anta where the colors are completely gone and only brush strokes give an impression of an arc-like pattern.
