Machine-generated from the object's image on Jul 2026. Not curatorial; treat deities, names, and signs below as the model's best reading, not authority.
Bronze disc-shaped object with a central perforation and a worn rim, photographed from above.
The image shows a single, circular bronze-like metal object resembling a cymbal or thin plate. A round hole is visible near the center. The surface is heavily worn with oxidation and dark pitting; the rim is thicker and slightly uneven. There are no clearly legible hieroglyphs, Greek, Coptic, or Arabic inscriptions visible on the object in this view. No human figures or iconography are discernible; therefore, no deities, royal names, or cartouches can be confidently identified from the image.
