upward towards the shoulder, with the fingers doubled, so as to form a hole.
It has probably clasped a lance or stick, or something of that kind. The
legs were rather large, broken above the knees. The back of the statue was
only plane-cut. The length from the lower edge of the hat to the thighs was
103 cm.; that of the face from the same point 33 cm.; the breadth of the
lace 32 cm. The breadth across the shoulders was 52 cm. The statue was
found near the western margin of the mound 4.

High-relief, representing a female figure. With regard to the type of
the face, it came near to the immediately preceding ones. It was a
bigheaded figure of full size, sculptured in feeble high-relief on a large
rectangular slab of stone, about 25 cm. in thickness. It had been very badly
injured, so that only the left half of the figure could be anyhow discerned.
The face was almost circular, the eye a circular cavity, the nose wanting,
the mouth closed, the ear large, hanging, like the ear of a dog, the shoulder
rounded, the arm bent inwards across the body, the leg slightly bent. The
figure has been surrounded by a frame, nearly 20 cm. broad, and 4 cm. high.
The length of the figure to the thighs was 106 cm. The length of the face
38 cm.; the breadth of the iace 37 cm.
With regard to the type of the face, the figures found in this locality
may be divided into two distinctly different classes viz., the images A to M,
with oval faces, and, in general, of more artistic workmanship, and the
images N, O, P, Q, R, with broad, almost circular laces, and more rudely
executed. The latter are possibly of more ancient date than the former.
None of the latter was found at the mound 1.
