A carved limestone stela with extensive Egyptian hieroglyphs, depicting an offering scene and a standing male figure on the left with additional registers of figures and ritual elements.

The image shows an upright rectangular stela fragment/stele with an arched top, carved in low relief and filled with densely incised Egyptian hieroglyphs arranged in horizontal lines and registers. The upper register appears to include landscape or architectural/ritual elements with multiple standing figures in front of seated or propped offering forms. On the left, a large standing male figure holds or presents a staff-like object and wears a kilt and headgear; the figure is accompanied by hieroglyphic labels. Below, a large horizontal band contains rows of smaller figures, some holding long implements that resemble staffs or offerings. The right side includes additional vertical groupings of hieroglyphs and a figure/ritual motif near the lower right. There is visible damage/cracking across the face, and the relief remains readable in places but not perfectly. No clear Greek/Coptic/Arabic text is visible. Painted pigment is not clearly distinguishable in this monochrome image, though the catalogue indicates paint. No explicit cartouche is legible at this resolution; the exact royal name(s) cannot be confirmed from the provided image.
