Description

The statuette represents a sitting man wearing a garment of indefinite length and a wig covering his ears. The body is painted red, the garment is white, the wig and eyes are black. The arms that were originally pegged to the body are lost, but one may suppose with great likelihood that the statuette was an image of an oarsman of a model ritual boat.
