A small terracotta funerary cone-like artifact shown upright, with no clearly readable surface decoration in the provided image.
The image depicts a reddish-brown terracotta object with a conical/ truncated conical body standing vertically against a neutral gray background. The surface is worn and partially flaked, with patches of lighter and darker residue and areas where any original markings may have been lost. No legible hieroglyphs, cartouches, or iconographic figures are clearly visible on the main object. A small modern label with handwritten characters/numbers is attached at the bottom, but the text is too unclear to confidently transcribe.
