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.

A small green-blue faience ring showing the upper portion modeled as a female Hathor-head (wearing a wig and facial features) with part of the band visible on the sides.

The object is a ring fragment or ring form with a ring band on both sides and a raised, rounded head element in the center. The modeled face has a frontal view with applied/formed features (eyes and facial lines suggested) and a stylized wig/headpiece that curves upward, consistent with iconography used for the goddess Hathor. Surface is worn with patchy areas of missing glaze/calcification, but the overall head-and-band silhouette remains clear. No legible hieroglyphic, Greek, Coptic, or Arabic text is visible. No cartouches or royal names are present. The material appears turquoise-green with lighter weathering and is consistent with faience as catalogued.
