Stone statuette depicting a seated or squatting man with a bald head and formal wig (or wig-like head covering), shown from the front with arms brought forward.

The image shows a small ancient Egyptian sculptural figure carved in light-colored stone. The man’s face is fairly smooth with inset or indicated eyes and a neutral expression. He has a bald or closely shaven head and wears what appears to be a black wig/head covering rendered as a curved, flaring band around the sides and back of the head. Large, formal ear shapes are visible. The figure’s shoulders and chest are simplified; both arms extend forward with hands held close to the torso. The body is carved with minimal detail below the waist, suggesting a seated/squatting posture. The surface appears worn with patches of discoloration consistent with age and/or old coating. No clear hieroglyphic inscriptions, cartouches, or identifying texts are visible in the photographed area. No deities or royal names can be confidently identified from the image.
