Vertical stone fragment showing a recessed register with incised hieroglyphic text and parts of a painted or carved standard-like motif.
The image depicts a tall, narrow rectangular fragment of dark stone, tapering slightly and broken along one side. One broad face is occupied by vertically oriented incised hieroglyphs within a framed layout. Above, there is a rounded top with remaining contour suggesting the end of a larger sculpted element (possibly the upper portion of a statue block or standard). The central field contains multiple rows of hieroglyphic signs; some signs appear to include seated figures or symbolic elements, and there are horizontal line dividers that structure the text. The right edge shows damage and loss of parts of the signs. No clear cartouches are fully visible, and no identifiable deity determinatives are confidently readable. No Greek, Coptic, or Arabic text is present.
