Anthropomorphic plank-shaped figurine of an almost rectangural shape, with angular projections indicating the arms . The horizontal and wavy bands visible on the surface of the figurine most probably indicate clothes or ornaments. It is believed that those bands were not originally rendered in relief but painted. It is possible that the now lost pigments protected these parts of the surface from the erosion suffered by the rest of the figurine.
