Cut Ingot
A small piece with cut edges (reg. no. 13482/7). such pieces were hacked or chiseled off larger ingots, such as reg. no. 13482/1 (see below), probably during economic transactions.
. . .
Ingot
This irregularly-shaped artefact (reg. no. 13482/11) can be defined as an ingot; it is the largest piece of the hoard. It was likely produced by pouring liquid silver on a flat surface. The ingot is 0.5 cm thick and weights 44.3 gr. Esehl et al. 2018 suggested that objects such as no. 7 above, were chiseled off ingots such as this one during economic transactions.
