8390_2.JPG

Probably once a tall rectangular stela, but now in many fragments. On the front are two registers: at the top are scenes in raised relief, underneath is text in columns of sunk relief with a representation in sunk relief. On the back is also a text in sunk relief. The inscription discusses the dream of a man to whom the goddess Hathor appears.
