Sculpted upper portion of a seated female figure (likely from a pair or group statue), shown from the shoulders upward with a wig-like headdress and striated garment/wrap details.

The image shows the upper half of a stone sculpture featuring a female head and upper torso. The figure has a wig/headdress with thick, parallel incised bands across the sides and top, framing the face. The face has almond-shaped eyes, a straight nose, and a closed mouth, with a calm expression. A broad, horizontally banded collar or wrap is visible around the upper chest, and vertical/diagonal carved striations appear on the shoulders and upper garment area, suggesting layered clothing or a stylized mantle. The lower edge is broken/unfinished, consistent with an artifact preserved only as an upper fragment. No clearly legible hieroglyphic inscription, cartouche, or royal name is visible on the photographed surfaces. There are no Greek, Coptic, or Arabic texts apparent. The surface shows age-related weathering and discoloration, with reddish-brown staining and lighter patches consistent with stone alteration. The catalogued material is 'granite (?)'; the photographic appearance suggests a hard, dark stone but the exact stone type is not confirmable from the image alone.
