Complete large mustard monochrome square tile. The glaze is good and glossy. Three pieces of another earthenware object remained stuck to the front surface of the tile, probably during the firing process. Moulded relief decoration representing a zoomachia, with a felid (possibly a lion or a dog) attacking a caprid or a hare. The felid seems winged, with two long thin wings on its back. Above the main scene, there is a little bird flying, and two trefoil leaves, one represented upside down. The central motif is unframed.
