Cylindrical Box (Pyxis), 10th century, From Spain, Ivory; carved, H. 2 5/8 in. (6.7 cm), Ivories and Bone, Late Antique and Byzantine pyxides generally had flat lids, but the lids covering the cylindrical vessels of this Andalusian group are all domical. Thus, the missing lid of this example would probably have been domical as well
