A small, worn stela or plaque with indistinct features.

The artifact appears to be a stela or plaque made from a mud or clay-like material. The surface is rough and uneven, with much of the potential detail eroded. At the top, there seems to be a faint circular feature that might have once been more defined. The overall appearance suggests significant age and wear.
