A small, broken fragment with a deeply textured, ribbed surface, photographed against a gray background.
The object appears as a fragmentary piece of a small tile-like artifact with a wedge-shaped, broken edge. Its surface is decorated with vertical, regularly spaced ridges/raised grooves that run along the visible face; no clear painted surface, glaze, or recognizable iconography is visible in the photograph. The reverse or flat backing is not shown, and any inscription or cartouche is not discernible due to the fragmentary condition and the lack of legible markings.
