The ram is shown lying left, with head facing, and legs folded
beneath the body. The fleece is marked by stippling in regular
lines, and the head by hatching. The horns are ridged. The articulation
of the stylised hindlegs and the hooves is prominently marked,
and outlined in places by a notched ridge. The two halves are
joined by a neat seam. Around the neck is a necklace of beaded
wire with a large rosette pendant, with a projecting central granule
and the six petals outlined by plain wire. To the back of the
animal is attached a ring, lightly beaded down the centre. Beneath
the animal is a small oval base edged with beading.
