Head of ibis statuette

Head of an ibis, probably part of a statuette in bronze or other material. The beak is curved downwards. The neck is sinuous and ends with a sort of rim, the end is not worked and seems to form an interlocking element. The object is made in the lost-wax technique for solid casts.
