Roughly circular brown pottery face, with raised modelled features and a concave back. Face of a young male or female, with finely chiselled features and stylised wavy hair, falling to chin length. Above the centre of the forehead is an M shaped to the hair perhaps a vestige of the knot of snakes depicted on Medusa’s images. Patches of surface paint remain, possibly in white and blue. Possibly used to embelish a wooden coffin. One fine crack can be seen from the back and front of the piece, going all the way through, perhaps repaired at one point. This piece may have been conserved. Some modern paper and glue adhere to the of the piece, and there are two fine holes either side of the central parting, one with part of a rusting pin through it, probably from early twentieth century display technique.
