# Figure

Incomplete figure, perhaps of a deity or Bodhisattva, turned to his left. A broad band rounds the head and above it the hair is in grooves radiating from the vestiges of a chignon. Under the band the hairline forms a peak and the hair is in the vertical ladder mode except where there are curls behind the ears.
