A dark bronze statuette depicts a human-like deity with a raised, elaborate crown or headdress and crossed arms holding staffs, shown from head to pedestal base.
The image shows a standing, human-form figure with a central upright headdress/crown-like element that flares outward with curved forms. The figure has a stylized face with defined eyes and a prominent nose/mouth, consistent with iconographic conventions for Egyptian gods. Both arms are bent upward across the torso, with hands gripping or resting on two long, rod-like elements or staffs. The crown/headdress appears elaborate, with multiple lobes/segments around the top. The body is a simple column-like form tapering slightly toward the pedestal. No clear hieroglyphic inscription or cartouche is visible on the photo. The background is plain and the statuette is lit to emphasize surface texture; the material appears metallic with a dark patina.
