object type: obverse:  altar table or door and lintel of a naos, with three daggers, nails or plant-like stalks emanating from a point in the centre of its top.  To the furthest left of these projections is tied an ibis; the straight cord is pulled taut and comes to the centre of the bird's back.. The ibis strides left with a hieratic gait.  on either side of the bird and altar-like structure, and suspended level with the bird's breast, are two vaguely S-shaped aquiggles, possibly meant as uraei; above, a star, inscribed below the ground line with a magical name.  The reverse is blank
