About the sculpture

This small votive statuette is featureless except for two stubby arms that curve downward from the shoulders. The head is conical with a rounded top and is marked by a prominent nose flanked by pellet-shaped eyes. While the gender is uncertain, the statuette probably represents a male deity.
