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.
Dark, textured leather arm/wrist guard with a shaped protective pad and two loop-like bands/straps extending from either side.
The image shows a small, dark object on a neutral background, photographed from above at a slight angle. The central portion is a triangular/rounded protective pad with a crumpled or pebbled surface texture. Two curved strap/band elements extend around the sides, forming loop-like openings intended to secure the guard on an arm or wrist. No painted decoration, metal fittings, or clear attachment hardware is visible. The object appears worn and organically preserved, consistent with leather. No hieroglyphs, cartouches, Greek, Coptic, or Arabic text are visible on the image.
