Description	As much of the surface has become heavily eroded most of the features have been lost, although the hairline and angle of the jaw can be discerned. A slight moulding at the base of the truncation suggests that there might have been a stylised band of draperies here. The figure was probably male as there are no suggestions of an elaborate feminine hairstyle or jewellery, nor is there any trace of a wreath or coronet which might have survived to indicate whether a god or a mortal was represented (Lloyd-Morgan).
