Head of a Goddess with Weapons in her Hair

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

A stone relief carving features a human face surrounded by carvings. The face is centered and has short hair with a dot on its forehead. Above the face, a circle with a dot in the center appears to hover. Two curved lines extend from the circle on either side. Two small, protruding figurines are on the right and left. The relief is bordered by a geometric pattern. A hole is present at the top center. The stone surface displays a light brown color with a rough texture. The relief protrudes against a gray background. Two shadows are visible, one cast by the relief and another behind it.
