end-blown flute

End-flute: of moderate length with four unevenly spaced holes on the side. There is a decoration of three concentric circles round the instrument below the fourth hole. A demotic inscription is engraved at the mouthpiece end on the same side as the four holes. The instrument has been hammered to its present shape, and there is a seam down the back; at each end the metal has been worked so that the flute tapers very slightly. The bore is cylindrical.
