Remarks: 25-1-1313 originally assigned to inscribed fragment of gneiss; fragment of basalt mistakenly given this number in "corrections and redrawings" (OR page 632); original registration number for fragment of basalt unknown (possibly one of basalt fragments originally registered as 24-12-978). Fragment of gneiss statue accessioned as MFA 25.2050. 24-12-467 (= MFA 24.2848) + 25-1-1313 (= MFA 25.2050)
