Description

Carved wooden base thought to house E.GA.114.1949. This item was possibly made in modernity (or was modified in modernity) as it features an inscription where the rendering of the individual hieroglyphs is poor, and they are awkwardly placed. This item likely did not house E.GA.114a.1949 (especially given the discrepancy in the number of dowel holes). What may have originally sat within the base is unclear.
