A three-dimensional model of a worn, basalt or stone artifact in the shape of a human head. The sculpture has suffered significant wear, obstructing and smoothing some of the details of the face and giving it an uneven, dark brown color. The 3D model can be freely moved, rotated, and zoomed in and out to allow the viewer to inspect the object from multiple angles. A small, still image of the object is also included, with the object against a white background and a measurement scale in centimeters below it.
