This impressively large female figure is depicted nude with voluptuous hips and buttocks. Her disk-shaped face is rendered with a prominent triangular nose and large eyes. Concentric circles are incised as decorative elements over her legs and shoulders with bracelets indicated on both wrists. For a similar figure, cf. G. Zahlhaas, Idole: Frühe Götterbilder und Opfergaben, Mainz am Rhein, 1985, no. 52.
