介绍（中）	这个强大的雕塑代表了一种摩弗隆，一种原产于近东高原地区的野羊。动物的头部现在部分折断，向上举起并向右扭曲，给人一种警觉的印象。艺术家实现了对静止动物的逼真渲染，它的重量完全放在它的左肚子上，它的左后腿藏在身体下面。雕像的底部已被磨损，但很可能隐藏的腿最初是在那里标明的。整个身体包含在一个完整的轮廓中。角、耳朵、尾巴和肌肉被浮雕建模，尽管时间和二次使用已经使右侧的轮廓变平。这种封闭的轮廓与广泛建模的质量和最少的切割细节相结合，是印度河下游摩亨佐达罗遗址哈拉潘时期动物雕塑的特征。这些动物雕塑的功能尚不清楚。
介绍（英）	This powerful sculpture represents a mouflon, a type of wild sheep native to the highland regions of the Near East. The animal's head, now partially broken away, is held upward and is twisted to the right, creating an impression of alertness. The artist has achieved a realistic rendering of an animal at rest, its weight thrown fully onto its left haunch, and its left hind leg tucked under its body. The bottom of the statue has been worn away, but it is likely that the hidden leg was originally indicated there. The entire body is contained within a single unbroken outline. The horns, ears, tail, and muscles were modeled in relief, although time and secondary use have flattened the contours on the right side. This combination of closed outline with broadly modeled masses and a minimum of incised detail is characteristic of animal sculpture from the Harappan-period levels at the site of Mohenjo Daro in the lower reaches of the Indus River. The function of these animal sculptures is unknown.
