fragmentary - offering bearer
Description
From Online Cat: The female offering figure once stood holding an offering in one hand and supporting a basket on top of her tripartite wig with the other. On the top of the figure’s head is a small hole for a dowel to attach to a basket containing food or object offerings. ... This offering figure is naked, which is not uncommon in the depiction of offering bearers.
