DescriptionA head apparently broken off a larger object. The face is square and chubby with small child-like mouth and nose. The chin recedes like that of an infant. The eyes are almond-shaped. The head is apparently hairless except over the left temple. The head is deformed - with an indentation running around it just above the brows, causing the upper part of the head to appear bulbous.On View
