360:... but I can't seem to find any common name for this object, so something like "Ivory plaque depicting a ship (NAMA ####)" might be best (where #### is whatever its National Archaeological Museum inventory number is - Pridemore doesn't give it).The other references on the wiki page are all taken over from the Pridemoore article. The relevant page numbers are: Casson p. 50-53 , Dawkins 1929, pp. 203-215, Morrison & Williams, p. 83. The original publication is in Dawkins "Excavations at Sparta, 1907" BSA 13 (1906-1907) 1-136, but Pridemore doesn't give a page reference.

really unbalance an article that's about 2,400 words long, excluding references etc? To put it another way, if everything was already in the votive objects section there, would we think the sanctuary article improved by moving the plaque content to its own article, or would we see that as diminishing

Agreed that it looks very strange (Might it be a student assignment?). Concerning that it has apparently been around for so long! The existence of the
Pridemore article/note and the various sources it cites make it likely that the item is notable. According to that piece it is "by far" the largest

I agree that the topic appears to be notable. Lots of individual archaeological artefacts are, even ones which like this are sufficiently obscure that they don't really have a common name. I agree that the current article name isn't great, and think
Johnbod's suggestion of

I think it does make sense as a separate article - Morrison & Williams' piece (and
Pridemore's) supports the claim that it's an important object for naval historians, not just for people interested in the Orthia sanctuary. It also appears in Hampe and Simon 1980
525:(1969), but I cannot find the page. Since it doesn't seem to have a standard name, I think the two neutral suggestions: "Spartan ivory plaque with ship" and "Artemis Orthia Sanctuary naval plaque" are good. The former seems slightly preferable.
