Inscription illegible. ca. 1295–1069 BC; New Kingdom, 19th–20th Dynasty, Egypt. Height 20 cm; width 6 cm., A weathered terracotta figurine in shades of reddish-brown and ochre stands upright against a plain gray background, showing a simplified human-like profile with a rounded head, a subtle nose and chin, and an elongated body tapering into a curved, bulbous lower end; the surface has a rough, pitted texture with small dark speckles and lighter patches, visible cracks and a horizontal seam-like break around the midsection, and faint contouring that suggests folded arms or raised hands across the chest.
