The Lady of Archontiko, Pavlos Chrysostomou https://www.academia.edu

Silver gilded omphalos phiale bowl from Archontiko, Pella, grave of a warrior. Dated to about the mid-6th century BCE.
Decorated with nine spear-shaped leaves, between which are as many similar, smaller leaves, while among them are three-petal lotus buds. In the inside the boss (omphalos) and its surrounding area are gold-plated, as are the attached “hearts” of the leaves. Between the boss and the leaves are stamped geometric and plant motifs.
