A carved stone fragment with an oval indentation, possibly once holding a cartouche or inscription.
This artifact appears to be a fragment of a larger piece, likely made of limestone. The central feature is an oval or circular indentation which may have originally contained a cartouche or some form of inscription. The surface is worn suggesting it has aged significantly, and it lacks any visible inscriptions or decorative motifs. The edges are rough, indicating it may be a broken piece of a larger object.
