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.
A roughly rectangular stone fragment carved in relief with a standing figure shown frontally, holding or interacting with objects, and an additional carved hand/arm element on the right.
The image shows a light-colored stone fragment (catalogued as marble) with a carved relief scene. The central portion depicts a standing human-like figure in profile-to-front view, arms raised and bent at the elbows, with a large curved object or raised element near the torso. On the right side of the relief there is a separate carved form resembling a hand or arm reaching toward the central figure’s area, suggesting an interaction with another person/figure or offering/ritual gesture. The background is undecorated. The carved details are worn in places, and no clear hieroglyphic text, cartouches, or complete inscription lines are legible on the visible surfaces. No identifiable royal name is clear enough to report, and no specific deity attributes can be confirmed from the available image alone.
