3D model of a statuette made of brown-reddish clay. It was strongly deteriorated by fire. The body is in the shape of a hallow cone and the head has a double face. The big ears are perforated, the noses are bulbous and the mouths are marked by incisions with a range of holes into lips. The arms, very long, hold a pot which was modelled on the head of the statuette. The statuette was decorated with vertical strips of incisions and it was painted with red and white colour (the decoration is deteriorated by fire).

Description The statuette, made of brown-reddish clay was strongly deteriorated by fire. The body is in the shape of a hallow cone and the head has a double face. The big ears are perforated, the noses are bulbous and the mouths are marked by incisions with a range of holes into lips. The arms, very long, hold a pot which was modelled on the head of the statuette. The statuette has a striking visual message materialized in its attitude. It holds a pot on the head, what could be a copy of a real situation, a woman carrying out water, but the meaning of modelling this statuette is probably ritually. The complexity of meaning increases because of the head with double face. It was probably used in water linked rituals (eg. dryness). The vertical ranges of incisions were interpreted as being water flows.
