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.
Small greenish glazed funerary figurine, shown upright with a rounded head and a stylized body; only the top half is clearly defined in the image.
The artifact appears as a compact, upright figurine with a rounded, darkened head and a narrow neck. The figure’s torso is simplified, with faint, possibly molded or incised details in the midsection (suggesting clothing or symbolic features), though no clear facial features or attributes are legible. The surface shows mottled green/olive and darker brown areas consistent with aged glaze or faience. A small rectangular label is visible at the bottom of the photo but is not part of the artifact’s decoration; no clear hieroglyphic inscription is visible on the object itself. The overall form and glazing coloration are consistent with a Late Period-style faience funerary item, though the specific name “Iuefaa” cannot be confirmed from this image.
