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.

An image shows six views of small amulets depicting a standing female-front figure with arms raised/positioned near the chest, consistent with Taweret-style protectress iconography.

The photograph presents multiple small, dark-colored objects (six images arranged in two rows, with a catalog number “32.1.187” visible near the lower-left object). Several pieces are shown from different angles: the figures appear squat and molded, with a blocky head and a torso; in some views the arms are raised and held in front of the body. The top area of at least two figures suggests a head/hair mass or headdress-like projection. No clear hieroglyphs, cartouches, or alphabetic text are legible on the surfaces in the provided resolution; the surface is largely worn/rough and does not show distinct incised signs. The objects appear carved or molded in a solid material rather than being metalwork, with a pitted/worn surface texture. No Greek, Coptic, or Arabic script is visible. The iconographic form aligns plausibly with the catalogued theme of the “Amulet of Taweret,” though the image quality and wear limit confident deity identification to “likely/consistent” rather than fully confirmatory.
