English, translated from the French record

Figurine without mould, quadruped without particular features, red fabric with white slip; right leg broken, with black traces (perhaps paint) on the legs and rump; solid modelling; H. 8.8. The upright cone at the hindquarters probably does not represent the tail; if so, the tail was probably made separately and inserted into the cavity made for it. Fragment of hindquarters with the left leg intact. Sanctuary, square K V/η6. Negative 01114_02; slide C_4855. Inventory Tc_1794; 29 August 1969.

Pâte rouge + engobe blanc traces noires (peinture ?) sur les pattes et la croupe. Modelé plein. H. 8,8. Si le cône dressé à l'arrière-train ne représente pas la queue, et c'est sans doute le cas, il faut alors supposer que la queue était faite à part et insérée dans la cavité pratiquée à cet effet.
