Small, oval, greenish-blue glazed steatite amulet/cowroid with a central incised/relief figure and symmetrical elements on the surface.

The object is a small, flattened oval plaque/amulet with rounded ends. Its surface is glazed in a greenish-blue tone with darkened contours around incised details. At the center there is a standing or composite motif resembling a simplified human/animal figure with raised arms or projections and a circular element above the figure. Additional angular, radiating or wing-like marks extend on both sides, but the exact forms (e.g., lions’ heads, merged lion bodies, or a sun disk) are not clearly distinguishable from this image resolution/lighting. No clear hieroglyphs, cartouches, or readable inscriptions are visible. No Greek/Coptic/Arabic text is present.
