[없는 문명] 토기 벌통

Museum catalogue photograph of a ceramic beehive from a civilisation that never existed: a long horizontal tube of unglazed reddish earthenware about sixty centimetres long, lying on a padded cradle, one end closed with a removable lid shaped like a flower with a single small bee-sized entrance hole at its centre, the other end open to show dark amber wax residue and remnants of old honeycomb inside. Fingermarks from the potter visible on the surface, a crack repaired in antiquity with a band of plant-fibre cord. Neutral grey seamless background, raking light from the left, a black-and-white scale bar and a small accession card beside the object with no legible writing on it. Archaeological museum catalogue documentation style. No readable text, no letters, no numbers, no logos.
