I am wondering which of its roles the と fulfills in the following sentence found in a Hiragana Times article. The sentence is the name of an exhibition:
「ー奈良市出土のようと不名品ー」
The のよう part I only know as "like/similar", usually in the form of のような・のように.
The only explanation for と I can think of, that applies here, is in its quotation form. As if someone had left out another set of quotation marks:
「奈良市出土のよう」と不名品
I've never seen と used like this though, without it being followed by a verb such as 言う for example.
-- EDIT
Someone posted a comment that then disappeared. They asked if maybe it could be 用途 or something similar.
The article was actually only using hiragana. I added the Kanji to make it easier to read but I might have inadvertently removed some crucial information in doing so. Here's the actual, original sentence from the Magazine
2022ねん10がつついたちから11がつまつに、ならしまいぞうぶんかざいちょうさセンターで 「また!ナニこれ? ーならししゅつどのようとふめいひんー」がかいさいされました。

From October 1st to the end of November 2022, the Nara Municipal Buried Cultural Properties Research Centre held an exhibition titled "Again! What is this? - Unknown Objects Excavated in Nara City."
