Carving of the torso of a seal. Seal is in the act of pulling itself out of a hole in the ice. All we see are the seal's fore flippers and head. Eyes and nostrils have been created by drilling holes and the mouth has been incised. A series of short parallel lines are incised along one edge of the bottom of the figure, along with an incised circle in the centre.
