They are rectangular shaped, modeled from clay, black (three pieces) or yellow (one piece). The objects present aincised geometrical motifs. Considering the disposition of the geometric decoration we can assume that the three black fragments belong to one or two fire-dogs while the other fragment (incompletely burned) is a part of another fire-dog.
