Description

A broken terracotta fragment photographed against a grey backdrop on a light stand, with its broken lower edge visible at the bottom left. It shows a rounded head with a pointed, beak-like projection and a large ear on one side, with a herringbone-hatched band across the front. A broad area of the upper surface is covered in rows of small stamped circles, and a crack runs across it.
