Description

A dark stone object shaped like a face is shown frontally and fills most of the print. It has a pointed crest at the top, rounded ears projecting at either side, and two almond-shaped eyes with raised rims. A narrow ridge marks the nose, a shallow line marks the mouth, and vertical incised lines run down the lower edge.
