DESCRIPTIVE DATA
----------------
object type: Glazed steatite scarab, inscribed on the base with two standing male figures; to the right is an image of the king with his hands raised in worship; to the left is a depiction of a god holding a 'was' sceptre- the mn sign above suggests part of the name of Amun. The god wears the crowns of upper and lower Egypt rather than the usual plumes of Amun, and the carving suggests hawk-headed Horus (?).
