Front portion of the head of an older bearded man broken from a relief. Signs of advanced age are indicated by furrows in the brow, lines at the corners of the eyes, and sagging cheeks. He would have been one of the auxiliary figures forming the group around the deceased in a large multi-figured funerary composition.
