Stone figure
Female figure with fingertips turned towards each other[...] She is said to have been found together with a skeleton in a grave surrounded by stones in a steep slope near the Meseta. This probably refers to the northern slope of Meseta B.[...] The figure can be recognised as female by the braided headband over the stepped hair or by the cap and the 'hip scarf' that exceptionally does not close on the left leg. She has regular facial features, semi-circular eyes running horizontally at the bottom and well-formed ears. Six toes can be recognised on the left foot, five on the right, and the head bandage extends behind the head. [...] The stone is grey fissured basalt. Source: K. T. Preuss: Monumentale vorgeschichtliche Kunst, 1929, pp. 39-40.
