Description
This figure's delicate face features rows of raised dots on the cheeks and the edges of the ears, perhaps representing ornamental scarification; the teeth are decoratively filed into a T or tau shape that may have had symbolic import. On her shoulder she carries a basket or bowl filled with a yet-to-be-identified bundle, perhaps marshy bulrushes. The headdress ties have been lost from one side of the head.
