Description: | Round-topped funerary stela, made for Ibi by his brother Ibi, the elder of the portal. There is a lunette with two udjat-eyes above two water ripples with a shen-symbol between. Inscribed in five rows of hieroglyphs facing to the right is a hotep-di-nesw offering formula for the retainer Ibi, son of Iret. Below the text is a representation of the deceased seated before an offering table, sniffing a lotus. The stela is precisely incised and the back is smoothed. Description Source: Birch, S. 1880.
