Description

A limestone head photographed in three-quarter view against a plain pale background. It wears a tall, rounded headdress with a band of knobbed relief across the brow, and the eyes, nose and cheeks are worn and partly broken. Rows of small rounded knobs cover the beard on the lower face, and a dark stone block sits at the right of the base.
