A fragmentary red-brown stone sculpture of a human face.
The artifact is a sculpted fragment of a human face, made from a reddish-brown stone. The face is clearly defined with visible eyes, nose, and lips, but lacks any visible details of the ears or hair. The style suggests a focus on basic facial features without elaborate details. The composition and craftsmanship are indicative of a skilled sculptor, but the lack of decorative elements makes it difficult to assign a specific cultural context.
