Stoneware head of a deity, Central or Eastern India, circa 8th–11th century A carved fragment depicting a female head with a serene expression, almond-shaped eyes surmounted by long, arched eyebrows, and an aquiline nose. Curls adorn the upper part of the forehead, which features a third eye in the center. The hair is combed and adorned with a jewel set atop the head, before falling back toward the nape of the neck into a large bun.
