A buff earthenware sculpture depicts a standing figure in textured armor with deep vertical grooves. They stand with legs apart and their left foot turned outward, one arm lowered and the other raised. A hood frames their face, which bears a furrowed brow and downturned mouth. Rectangular pads sit on their shoulders, and gray pigment remains on their hands and feet.
