This is a very rare and early representation of a female deity with superb purity of form. The top of the sarong is draped across the waistline and the hemline is flared towards the top. It is carved with delicate folds at the neck (trivali) and fine wavy lines are incised beneath the breasts and navel, an unusual feature.
