This statuette represents a standing male, his arms held out before him. He wears a helmet in the shape of a truncated cone, decorated with spiraling. Around his waist is a thick belt and on his chest is a thick "X" with horizontal lines at the top and bottom. The features of his face are schematically rendered. He appears to be standing on a bipartite support, also of bronze.
