Description
175mm tall, with a maximum width of 160mm; front to back measurement 165mm; there is a cup-type depression on the top of the head which suggests it may have held incense. These stone heads are believed to have been ‘God Figures’ of the Celtic peoples who inhabited Old Yorkshire during the Roman occupation and even earlier. They are exceptionally rare, ancient artefacts, and are therefore museum pieces
