This small monoxyl wooden statuette is carved in a very stylized way. Its tubular body rests on a circular base. Its umbilicus and chest are signified by small bosses. A notch separates the body from the head and is dressed with a three-row yellow pearl necklace. The stylized face features two large openwork braids and two cups at the ears. The eyes are incised in a cup and the mouth in a short horizontal line.
