Description

A grey terracotta figurine with a wide, bell-shaped body that narrows to a flat base. The head, shown in profile facing left, has a prominent nose, a small ear and a flat top, and a short stub of an arm projects from one shoulder. Cracks and small pits mark the surface, and the figure stands alone against a plain pale background.
