Notes: The connection between this field number and this museum number is not absolute. The head of this piece 31-43-389 is nearly identical to 31-43-387, which is U.16953. Woolley placed an A on that card but did not fill in B or further. Still, he likely meant that there were other examples of this figurine and that he was intending to add more to it, therefore it may be that 31-43-389 is another example of U.16953. The A example was located in Diqdiqqeh, but even if this example is B, we cannot be certain it too comes from Diqdiqqeh.
