    I'm not sure there is a face there or even that it goes that way up. The opening that is the 'mouth' looks functional to me. The 'eyes' do not look symmetrical; is there a hole on each side? I don't see one on the left. I doubt very much the term 'ancient' applies. Antique, maybe.

    Depending on size, maybe belt fitting?
