Head of Demon
Haḍḍa, lost location - Figure
This demonic character with a human face wears a wide headband above which his hair is bristling and stands up like a high tiara. The locks are treated in wavy furrows. The face is round, almost childlike, but the exorbitant eyes and the grimacing mouth give this demon a furious and demented look.
