Description

A weathered limestone figure shown upright on a plain backdrop, with the head and upper part of the body broken away. Vertical incised lines run down the torso, and a bent arm with a hand-like form rises near the shoulder. The lower body is partly preserved: one leg stands on a broken base, while the other side is broken off at the thigh.
