A bronze Egyptian statuette depicts a standing female deity holding a long staff and wearing a tall, conical/crowned headdress.
The image shows a full-length, dark metal statuette standing on a rectangular base. The figure is female with a slim torso and arms held close to the body; the right hand appears to hold or support a staff that extends upward beside/behind the head. The head wears a tall, pointed headdress resembling a crown or moded headgear with a curved/rounded element at the top; facial features are stylized with a heavy-lined eye. No clear surface inscriptions are visible at this resolution; the background is plain and there is no legible Greek/Coptic/Arabic text. The bronze catalogue title specifies the Goddess Mut; while the iconography broadly fits a standing female deity with a distinctive crown, the image is not detailed enough to conclusively confirm Mut vs. another Theban/Amunite female deity, so agreement is treated cautiously.
