Earthenware masks from Tiryns, dating back to the VII century B.C.,
now in the Archaeological Museum of Nauplion, Nafplio, Greece. The faces
represented on the masks show an original admixture of animal and anthropomorphic
traits: wide ears of human appearance, large and prominent noses, mouth
with fangs, great and bulging eyes. At present, there is no documentation
which could shed light on their employment.
