Figurine representing the goddess Demeter (or possibly Persephone). Moulded. She is standing, resting slightly on her left leg. Wearing a polos and a long chiton and on top of it a himation. On her head also a veil which falls in folds over her body. Her left arm is held along her side, the right one is holding a torch which acts like a support on the right hand side. Otherwise crudely worked. Red clay.
