PI. 18.
Male, sitting figure, with crossed legs, and the hands crossed in its lap.
1 he figure was unusually small, and not very artistically executed. The
head was large and very broad, adorned by a low turban with flaps
projecting side-wise. The forehead was low, the nose large; the eyes were
formed by unusually large, circular cavities; the mouth was small; the ears
were large, but not so prominent as in the image O. The chest and back
were equally elaborated, though the muscles were but slightly marked. The
arms were long, and, unusually enough, cut out so as to be perfectly detached
from the sides. The legs were very short and weak. The figure was seated
immediately on the square pedestal, that was surrounded above by a
prominent border on all the sides. The front of the pedestal was ornamented
by an engraved cross, its sides and back by rhombic figures, forming
interwoven garlands. This statue has certainly been insulated. It measured 92 cm.
from the upper edge of the turban to the upper edge of the pedestal. The
length of the face from the lower edge of the turban was 25 cm., its breadth
35 cm. The breadth across the shoulders was 54 cm.

brim, adorned by an ornament in relief, formed like a chain. The face was but
little elaborated, the forehead low, the nose long, broad, and straight; the
eyes were middle-sized, circular cavities; the mouth was broad, open, almost
square. The ears were long, extending, with perforated lobes. The neck
was short. The chest and abdomen showed some signs of muscles. The
shoulders were quite straight. The arms were narrow, without muscles; the
left one hanging straight down, with the fingers extended; the right one bent
