Standing figure with arms along the sides. The fingers are folded toward the palms. The face displays full lips with drooping corners, reflecting Olmec influence. The nose is flat, and the almond-shaped eyes are carved. The pectorals are marked with a groove, giving the sculpture a more realistic appearance. The legs were likely ritually broken.
