Funerary cone fragment of reddish clay with tapering cone or wedge-shaped element broken off and missing. Roughly square head end carries two different oval stamps, each respectively for a husband and wife, with hieroglyphic text identifying each.

Left stamp: "Chief of Weavers of Amen, Wershu, repeating life"

(Hry mrw(t) n Imn wrSw wHm anx).

Right stamp: "His wife, his beloved Henut, True-of-Voice, Possessor of Veneration" (Hmt.f mrt.f Hnwt mAa.t xrw nb(.t) imAx).

Funerary cones were components of a frieze, inserted above the doors of private tombs, particularly in the Theban region. They have been variously interpreted as: name-plates of sorts to identify the tomb owner, decorative memorials, boundary markers for a tomb, dummy bread loaves or meat offerings, symbolic roof beams, or (for the visible circular head) depictions of the sun disk.
