Description

A fired clay object with a broad, slightly curved top and an arched niche in its front. Inside the niche a modelled figure with a rounded head and a face in relief stands frontally, its body covered with rows of round pellet-like ornaments. The surface is worn and flaking, with pale and dark patches, and the piece rests on two projecting feet against a plain background.
