Mortuary Figure of the Zodiac Sign: Horse (Libra)
A standing figure in a long, loose robe with folds falling to a wide base, hands clasped at the waist. The head has a rounded, animal-like form with small projections, and traces of reddish slip show on the gray earthenware surface.
Look closer: A thin crack runs across the lower robe, and a small pale chip shows near the base.
