He, wearing a robe with fringed ends hanging down in a curve on either side (typical for the Ur III-Period!), holds his right arm bent near the right hip. On his left hand he is led by the goddess Lama who wears a flounced robe, facing an enthroned long bearded god, also in a flounced robe and with a multiple-horned head-dress. Behind him a vertical two lines inscription with the name and patronymic of the owner. Inscription: 1) A-ri-lum„?r-ilum (Sandhi!, „God is a hero.“), 2) DUMU I-x-ru-um-DIM (son of I-x-ru-um-d/tum.'
