Squatting man, part of a domestic group. Left arm at side, right arm at near bent angle, hole through hand suggests the figure originally held an item. Significant colour loss, but traces of red pigment can be identified. Unusual 'red' pigment on base, potentially a modern adhesive. Crack on left side of figure.
