Description
Small bronze figure of a bull, documented in preventive test pits carried out in the fields north of the archaeological park in an agricultural area designated in the new town plan of Guissona as an urban area. Its condition is very good as it is only missing its left hind leg. It is very well made, with four symmetrical legs, the head with an open mouth, the eyes and horns are well defined, the tail is clearly differentiated and the sexual organs are visible, showing that it is a bull, that is to say, an uncastrated ox.
