Anthropomorphic
This category includes representations of humans in 3D that may have been free standing.
Representations of humans in 3D which are hand modeled or mold-pressed and may have been free standing. These are separated from Plaques and Reliefs because they contain one main subject, no border, a plain background, are in high relief, and depict a stationary individual, either standing or sitting.
