Sub rectangular granite stela, somewhat round at the upper top. It shows an anthropomorphic figuration by incision representing the neck and the head: two deep, circular depressions represent the eyes and a vertical, deep groove depicts the nose, between the eyes. The neck is reduced to a horizontal groove, from which hang three concentric curves suggesting a necklace. Incised lines, which cross forming a network that might mean the hair or a headdress, also decorate the item, laterally. The stela is broken at the lower end.

MatrizNet is an interface of the Matrix / Inventory and Management of Museum Collections which makes available the information contained in the inventory files and the information which concerns exhibitions, presented in text, image, video and sound formats.
MatrizNet can be consulted in two user profiles: public and researcher. The user will be able to search the collections of a single museum or, transversally, in several museums, to search for works by an artist or from a certain historical period.
