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.

Photograph of two seated Egyptian deities on a shared base, shown frontally with arms folded and similar headdresses.

The image depicts a small stone sculpture showing two standing/seated figures presented together. The left figure wears a tripartite/striated headdress and a broad collar; its head is shown with a human face and a modest headdress crest. The right figure has a similar human face and headdress but appears slightly behind or alongside the left, with arms held close to the body and a large seated posture. Both figures sit on a single rectangular pedestal. No clearly legible hieroglyphs or alphabets are visible on the surfaces photographed; the background is plain and the object is lit in a way that shows weathering and pitting consistent with stone. Overall styling is consistent with iconography of paired deities associated with Amun and Mut, but exact identification from the image alone cannot be confirmed beyond the catalogue assignment.
