A small molded funerary figurine depicting a standing, mummy-like priest figure with a bald or closely shaven head and a distinctive wig/hat and shoulder/upper-body adornment.

The image shows a single upright figurine with a human upper body and legs rendered in a narrow, elongated form. The figure wears a short, close-fitting head covering/wig; the face has incised features (eyes, nose, mouth). The upper torso appears covered by a garment or beaded/striped collar-like element around the shoulders, while the arms are positioned at the chest area, with hands held together/raised in front. Along the body and base there are incised vertical and horizontal decorative bands and register-like lines that likely correspond to the sculpted/inscribed details typical of priestly funerary figurines.
