Description: Monument 30 is a semicylindrical fragment of stone which probably represents the occiput and neck of a severed head. The face has been completely removed as has the top of the head. Rounded relief projections appear near the back of the head on both the right and the left sides. The projection on the right side, in its present broken condition, is a small almost circular element. However, the projection on the left side is a long inverted triangle composed of three successively smaller circular elements.
