Description: | Described in Register as a terracotta foot., The foot is hollow underneath with a round hole in the top. All the contours of the foot are depicted i.e. ankle bone, heel, bridge. There are five toes, with a gap between the big toe and the second toe. The foot is placed on a platform, like the sole of a sandal, but no indication of strapwork. The platform is thinner at the back and gets thicker towards the toes (13.61mm = 19.71mm). There is evidence of red paint, mostly around the ankle and heel. The tip of the big toe is missing, probably post firing damage. There is also a small chip on the inside base of the heel. Needs cleaning.,
