Terracotta statuette of a goddess, perhaps Parvati, made in the Indian Middle Ages. It is preserved in a uniquely good condition, not only the head, but the whole uppe4r body is visible. Two out of her original four hands are preserved. She wears pointed three-pronged crown-like headdress and a pleated dress.
