Description	Seated Sphinx with truncated and flattened rear and very upright torso. The forearms are splayed out on either side of the body. The face is worn but it is possible to see that the facial features are crudely depicted. The hair is in a bun at the back of the neck. The musculature is depicted but there is little attention to detail on the feet.
