anthropomorphic figurine, probably representing a male figure due to its robust nature. The figure is bald with a very long neck. The shape of the head is peculiar because it is elongated at the top. The figure could be wearing a hat but it is not well defined. The ridge of the nose is very high. The arms are short knobs (if broken, it is not indicated in the drawing). Shoulders are wide, while the waist is thin. Overall, the torso is long, and because the legs are broken, we have no way of knowing if they are in fact proportioned with the torso. The figure is wearing a suit resembling a modern one-piece bathing suit. The only difference is that the suite is open from the back. The suit covers the genital area from the front but does not cover the buttocks from the back. This gives the impression that this figurine probably represented a worker or a handy man at work wearing a protective piece of clothing. Rick Hauser argues that the figure is wearing the skin of an animal, most probably a carnivore, where the claws are draping over the shoulders. The execution of this figurine is weak with no attention to proportions. [Input: ZK226yM.j] |
