Description

A carved stone head turned to the viewer's left, with a straight nose, a defined eye and a rounded chin. Ridged, curled locks lie over the forehead and temple, while the top and back of the head are plain and rough. The head sits on a rectangular plinth, with a broken lower neck and pale, chipped surfaces at its base.
