Description Possible pillar or column next to the surviving feet of a figurine. The feet are on a raised square plinth of 3mm height and 13mm square. Both the feet and the pillar are on a base 43mm x 30mm. The pillar is decorated with a number of horizontal ridges around the bottom half, with vertical ridges on the top third. There is some deliberate damage in evidence. An attempt has been made to separate the figure from the pillar with a cut in between them. There is another cut to the other side of the pillar. It also appears that part of the base is missing to the other side of the pillar (PAS).
