介绍（中）	这尊雕像属于一组雕刻象牙，主要是家具元素，可能是在安纳托利亚中部Acemhöyük的一座宫殿遗址发现的。大多数象牙都描绘了从埃及来源借来和转换的图像，但这件作品采用了牛头人的形式，这是一种典型的近东超自然生物，将人的头部和正面裸露的躯干与公牛的下半身结合在一起，如四分之三视图所示（注意左侧沿着侧翼曲线可见的尾巴）。这名牛头人的脸与Acemhöyük的其他脸很相似，其面部轮廓的头发以卷发结束，大鼻子和宽阔的眼睛被挖空以接受镶嵌物，现在已经不见了。他双臂上戴着皮带和手镯。象牙的红色表明表面存在氧化铁。由于碎片的破损区域也被染色，它可能不是故意染色的，而是由于与埋葬它的土壤接触而染上的。没有镀金的痕迹。头部顶部的一个孔，用于连接到另一个元件上。
介绍（英）	This figure belongs to a group of carved ivories, mostly furniture elements, probably found at the site of a palace at Acemhöyük in central Anatolia. Most of the ivories depict imagery borrowed and transformed from Egyptian sources, but this piece takes the form of a bull-man, a typically Near Eastern supernatural creature combining a human head and frontal nude torso with the lower quarters of a bull shown in three-quarter view (note the tail visible at left along the curve of the flanks). The bull-man’s face resembles others from Acemhöyük, with its face-framing locks ending in curls, large nose, and wide eyes hollowed to receive inlays, now missing. He wears a belt and bracelets on both arms. The red color of the ivory indicates that iron oxides are present on the surface. Since the broken areas of the piece are also stained, it was probably not intentionally colored but picked up this stain as a result of contact with the soil in which it was buried. There are no traces of gilding. A hole at the top of the head allowed for attachment to another element.
