English, translated from the French record

Hollow-moulded fragment of a bust of a standing draped female figure, left side, with the shoulder and folded arm, from square K V/γδ10 and Γ23 in the Rampart sector, Salamis, Cyprus; object inventory Tc_0138, negative 01961_03, slide C_1070. Classical period. The left shoulder and arm, folded across the bust in front and descending slightly, are wholly enveloped in the folds of a drapery worn like a scarf, the folds converging from the shoulder and from under the arm towards the centre of the bust. This type of drapery would have great success in the Hellenistic period. Back preserved over a slightly greater width than the front; beige fabric; H. 13 cm; l. 7.4 cm (back) / 7 cm (front). 28 September 1966.
