Description, scan 2
A small terracotta figurine stands upright in the photograph, with a rounded cap-like top over a cylindrical head, a pinched nose and two side projections. Its arms extend straight out from the shoulders as flat horizontal bars, with two small lumps at the chest above a long, narrowing, column-like body that ends flat at the base. The figurine is set against a pale ground, with a number at upper left and a label at the bottom edge of the card.
