Interesting that they identify the partial figurine as female. Given the location of the site and incised lines it seems to be more of a head wrap very similar to those still worn in Afghanistan and Pakistan.

The representation of the eye, huge and puffed out relative to the size of the nose seems more like a badly beaten face. As does the lopsided slack swollen mouth.

Facial representation very similar to the booking photo of the homosexual babysitter molester surprised by the male child's father.

Pretty bold assertion by the archaeologists...baring other evidence
