Remarks: Fragment of pedimental sculpture preserving head of young Herakles or ruler(?). Handmade, solid. Burned but hair was clearly black. Deep-set eyes. Right ear very small and low-set. Forehead chipped. About half life size. Taenia tied at back. Hole for meniskos(?). Back unfinished, traces of attachment. Was viewed in three-quarters to viewer's right.
