A very crudely modeled, approximately triangular lump of fired clay, with three rounded points and intervening concave sides, was found near the center of the burial area. One surface is slightly concave, the other convex. It will stand upright only on the edge opposite the largest point. Width at base is cm., height cm., thickness from front to back cm.
