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.

Painted limestone shabti figure shown standing frontally, with a mummiform head and hands crossed across the chest.

The image depicts a small, vertically oriented funerary statuette (shabti) on a modern base. The figure has a dark-painted face with simplified facial features (eyes and brows indicated), a striated/striped headdress covering the head, and a pale collar and broad chest band. Two arms/hands appear raised with hands crossed over the chest. The body is painted in horizontal registers with multiple dark ink/red-brown lines and what appear to be incised/drawn hieroglyphic signs arranged in stacked rows across the torso and down the legs. Clothing elements are indicated by repeated horizontal bands; a red-brown/orange pigment is visible on parts of the arms/hands. No cartouche is clearly legible, and no specific deity name is unambiguously readable in the photo. The inscription is present but too unclear to transcribe reliably at this resolution. No Greek/Coptic/Arabic text is visible.
