Description

A carved limestone figure of a seated person, with the head and upper neck missing where it broke off. The figure wears a garment with vertical folds, one arm bent across the chest with the hand resting on it, and the other arm resting at the side with a band at the wrist. The figure sits on a rough, uneven base, and the lower legs and feet are visible at the front.
