12.3.4 \*Headless deity.\* \[cf. 12.6\]. A headless clay figure of some female deity with prominent breasts and curved arms kept in a coffin-like clay box was found buried in a floor of a house associated with the Jorwe culture \[4.14.6\] at INAMGAON. The figure seems to have been made for some kind of fertility rite. \[Also see MAHURJHARI.\]
