Hair in vertical curls over forehead and coming down on shoulders in a heavy mass waved horizontally: features heavy showing Sumerian tradition. Edges of drapery not indicated. Below the waist the body is simply columnar with a raised rim edge where the feet should be. This was apparently mounted on a gold-plated wooden stick, 0.123 long., tapering downwards (c.f. Ephesus ivories). The metal and part of the wood remain.
