Limestone fragment with faintly visible carvings.
This fragmentary piece of limestone appears to contain traces of relief carvings, although details are heavily worn or damaged. The surface shows signs of erosion, making it difficult to ascertain specific scenes or figures. There are indications of possible figural or symbolic motifs, but the level of degradation obscures most notable features.
