Close-up photograph of a weathered stone relief carved on a flat stone panel. A small carved figure with a rounded head, a bun-like headdress and a prominent face is shown reclining or leaning horizontally, with one arm raised and the body in a curved pose. The stone is pale grey with visible erosion and speckled surface wear, and faint red pigment remains on the face area. No living people are visible, and the figure is a sculpted depiction rather than a person.
