Description: Nude female standing with weight on left leg, right beside it but bent and raised slightly. Left hand placed to cover genitalia. Right arm at side, bent at elbow with forearm outstretched and hand open. Fairly basic depiction of form, actually better to the rear and sides than the front. Fingers and toes depicted. Very small round breasts with raised nipples. Very crudely depicted face with almost no mouth, wedge nose and almond-shaped incised eyes. Hair in a bun at the nape of the neck. Headdress a band around head incised with cross-hatching, and a raised section on top of the head from which two notches have been cut at the rear. Rather nice piece let down by the poor facial features.
