DescriptionFemale figurine made of a woman's head on top of a section of hieroglyphs. She's got a long hair hold by a band on the forehead and falling on each shoulder in a big curl. She's wearing a broad necklace, and a striated flat cap. Under the collar are four lines of text between two friezes (which means that the text is complete). The figurine is broken underneath. Its back is flat and smooth.
