Limestone stamp-like artifact bearing carved iconographic elements resembling a cobra/uraeus and a sun disk on one face.
The image shows a rectangular, horizontally oriented piece of carved limestone photographed against a light background. One end/face has shallow, worn relief carving: a curved, vertical motif with short projecting strokes is visible near the center-left, which could correspond to an uraeus/cobra figure, though the exact details are abraded. Near the right side there is a circular element consistent in shape with a sun disk; the inner surface is heavily worn and lacks clear radiating details. No clear hieroglyphic signs, cartouches, or readable text are visible. Edges show chipping/rounding consistent with age and use-wear typical for stamps.
