A small mace-like object shown in side view, with a rounded bulbous head and a long cylindrical handle.
The image depicts what appears to be a mace model: a bulbous, rounded head at the left and a straight, cylindrical handle extending to the right. The surface looks dark brown to reddish-brown, consistent with wood or a wood-based object, and there are no clearly legible carved details on the head or handle at this resolution. No painted decoration, metal inlay, or inscriptions are visible. No cartouches or hieroglyphic signs can be confidently identified, and there is no Greek/Coptic/Arabic text present.
