Description
Start of a pipe formed by a rectangular plate of lead from which the lead pipe comes out. The connection between the tube and the plate was made by hammering. The distal end of the tube displays marks of having been severed. One of the angles of the plate has a circular hole. The back of the plate has traces of lime mortar.
