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.
The image shows a carved male head sculpture with defined facial features and a partially preserved hairstyle, presented against a light background.
A small stone sculpture depicts a male head in three-quarter/straight view, with incised eyebrows, eyes, a short nose, and a full moustache and beard or chin beard. The forehead and cheeks are smoothed, while the hairstyle appears as short, slightly wavy or layered locks across the top and sides; the ears are simplified and partly damaged. No clear royal insignia, cartouches, or surrounding iconographic elements are visible. The object appears head-shaped and intact with minor surface wear. A small white label beneath the object contains the number '70.89.1' in black text. No hieroglyphic, Greek, Coptic, or Arabic inscriptions are legible on the stone itself in this view.
