A small, ancient Egyptian statue fragment resembling a wrapped figure.

The object appears to be a fragment of a small, ancient Egyptian statuette. It likely represents a mummiform figure, possibly an ushabti used in funerary practices. The visible workmanship suggests it is crafted from a single piece of stone, and its weathered surface indicates significant age. Notable features include the detailed contours of the head and upper body, despite its fragmentary condition.
