介绍（中）	三脚架用猫的爪子站立。每条腿的中心杆上都有一个掌纹，在上面的上环上有一个沙发式的狮身人面像。大型马原体，包括前腿和头部，装饰着每个倒U形中间杆上方的上环。每匹马的原型下面都有一朵莲花。这个支架本来可以支撑一个青铜器皿三角架在地中海东部地区有着悠久的历史。最早的例子发生在公元前13世纪的塞浦路斯，在随后的几个世纪里，该型号继续在那里和其他地方生产。塞浦路斯版本分布广泛：在塞浦路斯、克里特岛、基克拉泽斯群岛、希腊大陆、撒丁岛和意大利都有发现。这个展台是后来希腊制造业华丽风格的早期例子。它由几块铸造而成，然后焊接在一起，是一件技艺高超的金属制品。柏林国家博物馆的Metapontom的一个相关展位是为数不多的其他已知完整的例子之一。
介绍（英）	The tripod stands on feline-paw feet. Atop the central rod of each leg is a palmette, and above this, on the upper ring, a couchant sphinx. Large horse protomes, which includes the forelegs as well as the head, decorate the upper rim above each of the inverted U-shaped intermediate rods. Below each horse protome is a lotos blossom. The stand would have supported a bronze vessel. Rod tripod stands have a long history in the eastern Mediterranean region. The earliest examples occurred on Cyprus in the thirteenth century B.C., and the type continued to be produced there and elsewhere in the succeeding centuries. The Cypriot version has a wide distribution: it has been found on Cyprus, Crete, the Cyclades, mainland Greece, Sardinia, and Italy. This stand is an early example of a later, ornate type of Greek manufacturing. Cast in several pieces and then soldered and jointed together, it is a highly accomplished piece of metalwork. A related stand from Metapontom in the Berlin Staatliche Museums is among the few other known complete examples.
