Figurine depicting a standing male human carrying a child on his shoulders. The child’s upper torso is painted with cream slip that ends at his neck, which may indicate body paint or a long-sleeved tunic. The same cream slip covers his lower legs and feet, and also creates a vertical striped pattern on his hipcloth. The man wears a tubular headband and his legs are painted with cream slip.
