A green, oval scarab seal carved in relief with rows of hieroglyphs and a central figure-like sign.
The image shows a single oval scarab inscribed in dark green/greenish material. The top view is centered, with a polished border around the oval. Within the oval field, multiple vertical and horizontal hieroglyph-like elements are carved in light relief. Near the upper portion there appear to be bird/figure-like or sign elements, and in the middle and lower portions more blocky sign forms are arranged in a compact layout. No cartouche framing the entire composition is clearly legible in the provided photo. No Greek/Coptic/Arabic text is visible. The object appears intact; only minor surface wear is suggested by slight darkening and specular highlights from photography.
