From a collection acquired on the UK art market from various auction houses and collections mostly before 2000. From an important Cambridgeshire estate; thence by descent.
The fragment plausibly represents one corner of an arrangement such as that at Tanum, Denmark (Milstreu & Dodd, 2018, fig.8) in which a cluster of shallow depressions forms a larger pattern. The depressions may have been used to collect dew or rainwater, visualised as a gift from the gods provided without human intervention, as well as for ceremonial uses. -
