Kneeling figure. The head is elongated and topped with a round headdress that has a deep bowl at its centre. Scratches in the bowl suggest it was used as a container in some form. Carved into the face are eyes and a mouth, a hole for a right ear, and at left, a large oval shape. Below the short neck is a narrow chest and two arms bent so that the hands rest on the stomach, where a hole has been bored. The left side of the figure shows a leg bent at the hip and knee, indicating the figure is kneeling. The right side beneath the arm is not clearly carved.
Standing figure. The head is large and oblong to front and back, with large ears carved on either side, protruding eyes, a wide nose, and a hint of a mouth. Below a short neck is a round and protruding torso at the chest and buttocks, leading to combined legs that are bent at the knees. The arms of the figure are slightly bent and meet the lower body at the thighs, where the hands are smoothed into the legs. The figure stands on a circular base.
Long thin piece of twisted iron known as a kissi penny. A twisted shaft separates a roughly shaped rounded flat end, and a short dual-pointed end, running perpendicular to the shaft.

Stone carving of two separate figures that join into a common being below the chest. The left figure is slightly larger, with an elongated head and relatively well defined features carved into the face. Two arms start at the rear of the figure below the neck and wrap around both sides to the front. The smaller figure to the right also has a slightly elongated head. Much of the face has been obliterated, with the mouth and right eye remaining, as well as two ears that are carved into the sides of the head. This figure also has arms beginning at the back below the head and wrapping around to the front on both sides. The figures sit on a thick oval base carved out of the same piece of stone.
A female figure carved in bone. The figure has a large, relatively flat head to front and back, with three horn-like projections rising out of the top. An inverted teardrop shape is carved into the prominent forehead between the eyes. The ears are narrow and carved close to the head, the nose is wide, and the mouth is thin-lipped. The neck is made up of two carved rings, leading in back to prominently carved shoulders and buttocks, and in front to breasts and a protruding stomach. Arms hang straight down, ending at the hips, and have no hands. The legs are slightly bent at the knees, and end at feet carved into a round base with a hole in the centre. Many areas of the body have been texturized with a pattern of fine carved lines, most prominently on buttocks, shoulders and horns. The rough interior of the bone can be seen on the top of the head, groin area, and centre of the base.
Kneeling figure. The head is pointed at top, with protruding ears, prominently carved eyes and eye sockets, a large nose that widens at bottom, and a protruding pointed chin. The back of the neck is carved with four vertical bulges, underneath which are very large, prominent shoulders. The arms are bent and hands touch the face at either side of the mouth, the right hand having three fingers and the left hand having four fingers. A rounded stomach leads down to legs bent into a kneeling position, with feet crossed at ankles in back. The stone of the figure is filled with sparkly inclusions.
