Stunning small alabaster carving of five bulls in a line, from the southern Arabian Sabaean culture, circa 5th - 3rd century BCE. Small but evocative, well carved and well preserved. Bulls were representative in the Sabaean culture of the high, old gods, this being likely a worship or devotional piece for home use.
