Seal, unknown South Egyptian workshop, pyramidal clay seal with a roughly square stamp surface and rounded corners. Shallow incisions at mid-height. On the base an engraved letter—possibly a geometric B or an M resting on the base—with a small round recess beside it. Upper part is impressed; chipping on the base. Visible kaolin clay, pink-beige. 6th–7th century; Edfu. Seal/stamp. Height 6.1 cm, width 5.5 cm., A weathered, fragmentary brown clay object with a roughly rectangular top and tapered lower edge suspended against a gray background, showing two shallow horizontal grooves on its front surface that suggest simple facial features and a rough textured surface with small pits and worn edges, with visible areas of darker brown and lighter tan variations and a small patch of white on one side.
